In this post, we will guide you on how to make a delicious and easy almond milk banana bread recipe that your family will love!
What You’ll Need
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
3 ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup almond milk
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
Time to start making your Almond Milk Banana Bread
Firstly, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your loaf pan. This is important as it will ensure that your banana bread doesn’t stick to the pan. It makes it easier to take out later on.
Next, in a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Make sure to whisk those dry ingredients together so that they are evenly distributed. Don’t forget the salt as it helps to balance all the flavors in the banana bread.
Then, in a separate bowl, combine the mashed bananas, sugar, almond milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Make sure to mash the bananas well because they will give the bread its sweetness and moisture. You can also leave some banana chunks inside if you like a little more texture in your bread. Then mix it with all the other wet ingredients which are almond milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Don’t forget to add a pinch of salt to the wet mixture too.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture and stir until just combined. You do not want to overmix it as that can make the bread tough. Stirring it enough will create a beautifully thick and fluffy texture.
Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and bake it for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Ovens can vary in their temperature so keep an eye on it so that your bread does not burn. You can check at 50 minutes and see how it’s doing. Rotating the pan halfway through will also help the bread to bake more evenly.
Let the banana bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes and then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. Once it’s cooled, it’s ready to serve! Cut up some slices and enjoy it with your loved ones.
