A twist on classic banana bread, this Vegan Raspberry Banana Bread is made with just a few simple ingredients like oat flour, nut butter, and of course raspberries & bananas. It's completely gluten-free, oil-free, and fruit sweetened!
Today we're stepping up classic banana bread with raspberries!
If you're looking to change up your banana bread recipe or just use some of those raspberries you've got lying around your house, this bread is for you.
Or, ya know, if you just love raspberries.
Raspberries add fun bursts of tart flavor to the otherwise sweet bread. Plus, the red color s beautiful!
Step 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
Step 2. In a blender or food processor, process the bananas until they reach a liquid consistency.
Step 3. Add in the almond or cashew butter, baking powder, apple cider vinegar, cinnamon, oat flour, almond flour, and ground flaxseed. Process until smooth.
Step 4. Stir in the raspberries.
Step 5. Spread the mixture into the lined loaf pan. Top with additional raspberries or a sliced banana, if desired.
Step 6. Bake for 55-60 minutes or until the top is lightly brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Step 7. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 15 minutes. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to a week. Enjoy!
Yes. Oats are naturally gluten-free. Some oats have cross contamination with gluten during processing, so if you are especially sensitive buy certified GF oats.
This recipe would work fine with all purpose flour. (Though it wouldn't be as healthy! - strive for minimal processing.)
Instead of using almond or cashew butter you could use tahini or sunflower seed butter. Both of these butters have a stronger flavor than almond and cashew butters, so it would change the taste slightly.
It think this bread would taste great with chocolate chips, vegan white chocolate chips, or coconut flakes. If you want to add any of these, add 1/3 cup when you stir in the raspberries
Store in the fridge for up to a week. Or freeze for up to 12 months.
Lord thank you for bananas. Thank you for teaching us to transform them into delicious, healthy banana bread. Amen.
