Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • ½ cup vegan butter at room temperature (see FAQ for oil option)
  • 3 very ripe bananas mashed well
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ cup vanilla soy milk mixed with 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon allspice
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 a large banana split lengthwise, for the top (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray an 8x4 loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray or lightly coat with vegan butter.
  • Sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and allspice.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the vegan butter and sugars. Add the mashed bananas, soy milk mixture, and vanilla and mix well.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until just combined — don't overmix.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan. If using, lay the halved banana cut-side up across the top. Bake for 60 to 70 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning out.
