Gluten Free Vegan Banana Bread

April 10, 2016

Moist and fluffy Gluten Free Vegan Banana Bread with LOTS of Chocolate Chips (can you ever have too many?!). One bite of this soft and springy banana bread and you’d never guess it is gluten free and made without any nuts or oil!

Hey guys! I’ve missed you and sharing recipes with you this week! What have you been up to?! Anything fun going on this weekend?! It snowed here this past week. SNOW in April. I know, right?! Did it snow where you are? Who else is ready for Spring!?

J and I were knee deep (in snow, lol!) AND getting our new design online this past week. What do you think of the purple?! I’m pretty much in love with it. I took a break from posting recipes last week to iron any wrinkles out in the new design. We had a demo site but somehow when we transferred everything over some elements of the design changed which caused our theme to BREAK (and subsequently go offline for a bit). I didn’t even know that was possible, ha! Anyways, I am SO happy, relieved (and kind of ecstatic) that the new site is online and running smoothly. And my apologies to anyone who tried to visit last week while it was under construction!

But enough about coding and technology issues that are enough to make your head spin (l0l)! Let’s talk about this Gluten Free Vegan Banana Bread!! I’ve been testing out recipes for a 100% gluten free, nut free, oil free (and vegan, of course) banana bread for months now. And I finally found the perfect combination of simple ingredients to get the fluffiest and softest gluten free banana bread ever!

I love baking with oat flour. It’s rustic, healthy, cheap and you can make it at home by blending oats into a fine flour. I’ve found that when I only use oat flour in baking, the results are sometimes too dense for my liking. Have you ever baked with tapioca starch before? It works like magic with oat flour, creating fluffy baked goods without the need for any gluten!

That gorgeous golden color comes from the molasses I used in this Gluten Free Vegan Banana Bread. Molasses does AMAZING things to breads and muffins. It’s the secret ingredients in this Banana Bread, makings it SO incredibly moist, soft and tender.

Oh, and don’t leave out those chocolate chips…

I made this last night and love it. I wanted to add raisins and nuts to it, but after eating some today it tastes like raisins are in it. I might try adding them the next time, but this is a really good treat to have on hand for any time you just want a snack.

Made this with rice flour instead of oats flour. the texture and flavour are superb. I will however reduce on the sweetener next time. Too sweet for me.

I made this last night and it was such a delicious banana bread! Moist and chocolately (I may have gone a lil overboard with the vegan chips!). Super easy recipe. It was a bit hit with the whole family. Will definitely be making this again ! Thanks Ceara!

The combination of cane sugar+molasses+maple syrup may be a little too much for me, do you think I could omit any of these? Loved the gf flour combo!! Thanks for the recipe!

Danielle Bush April 11, 2016 at 2:07 pm

Ceara, I am new to your site and I am really enjoying looking through it and getting new ideas. Can you use another flour besides Oat, like maybe Buckwheat? I am trying to stay away from all grains.
Thank you.
Danielle
