Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup plant-based milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (natural)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (natural)

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups homemade oat flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cinnamon (natural)
  • 1 tsp natural gelling agent

Optional Add-ins

  • 1/3 cup nuts or seeds (optional)
  • 1/4 cup plant-based dark chocolate chips (optional)
  • 2 tbsp smoked turkey bacon bits (optional)
  • 1/2 cup diced apple chunks (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Oat Flour: Grind rolled oats in a food processor or high-speed blender until you achieve a fine, powdery texture similar to regular flour.
  2. Mash the Bananas: Thoroughly mash the ripe bananas in a large mixing bowl to ensure moisture and natural sweetness.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In the same bowl, combine the mashed bananas, vegetable oil, plant-based milk, vanilla extract (natural), and brown sugar (natural). Mix until smooth and uniform.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the homemade oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon (natural), and natural gelling agent. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture to form a smooth batter.
  5. Incorporate Add-ins: Gently fold in any optional nuts, seeds, smoked turkey bacon bits, or fruit add-ins with a spatula until evenly distributed.
  6. Bake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and Serve: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Slice and enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for the best sweetness and flavor.
  • Measure oat flour carefully by spooning lightly into your measuring cup.
  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid tough bread.
  • Check doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center.
  • Add cinnamon and vanilla extract (natural) for enhanced aroma and taste.
