I've posted quite a few different recipes for various flavours of vegan banana bread before; but I realised recently that I have never actually written up the recipe for my basic, easy vegan banana bread.

This easy vegan banana bread may be basic, but it is anything but boring. It is a super simple recipe that uses just regular store cupboard ingredients but results in a beautifully moist, tender, fluffy, flavourful banana bread that easily rivals any egg and dairy laden variety.

Light brown soft sugar - brown sugar gives the banana bread flavour and extra moisture, but it will still work well with white sugar if you don't have brown.

Oil or vegan block butter - you can use a neutral flavoured oil such as sunflower, vegetable or canola oil, or use melted coconut oil or melted vegan block butter. All of these options work well. (Oil might give a sliiightly more moist texture than butter but both are good. The one in the photos was made with melted butter (Naturli Vegan Block)).

Plain flour - I like this vegan banana bread best made with regular plain white flour but you can also swap about a third of it for wholemeal flour if you like. Or replace the plain flour with white spelt flour.

Non-dairy milk: soy milk is best for baking as it has the highest protein content but any variety will work (except tinned coconut milk).

Cider or white wine vinegar: a little bit of vinegar reacts with the bicarbonate of soda to help the banana bread rise. You could swap it for a teaspoon of lemon juice if you don't have vinegar.

Vanilla and cinnamon: I like to add a dash of vanilla extract for extra flavour but you can leave it out if you don't have it. I kept the cinnamon fairly minimal to enhance the banana flavour rather than overpower it but you can add more if you like. A ¼ tsp of ground nutmeg would be a lovely addition too!

Start by whisking together plain flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl using a balloon whisk.

Next, mash your bananas very well with a fork and add them to the bowl of flour along with light brown soft sugar, your choice of oil or melted butter, non-dairy milk, cider or white wine vinegar and vanilla extract.

Gently whisk everything together until no dry lumps remain but be careful not to over-beat the batter as that can make the cake tough.

Pour the batter into your greased and lined tin and spread it level. Bake for about 50-60 minutes until the banana bread is springy to the touch and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. If the top starts to get too dark before it is ready you can loosely cover it with tin foil.

Cool in the tin for ten minutes then carefully turn it out onto a wire rack and leave to cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to five days.

This easy vegan banana bread is delicious as it is but it also works really well with mix-ins. Why not try adding about 125g of chocolate chips, roughly chopped nuts, raisins or other dried fruit?
