    The famous Banana Bread is nothing but a delicious banana cake. If you haven't tried it yet, you should do it ASAP. It is absolutely delicious! Trust me when I say that starting the day with a slice of Banana Bread is just heavenly (even better if covered with a thick layer of peanut butter!).

    With this vegan Banana Bread recipe, you'll get a very fluffy cake that blends the flavor of banana with that of chocolate and caramel (given by the cane sugar used in the recipe). The result is a cake that everyone will love: Adults and children.

    How to Store Banana Bread

    You can store this vegan Banana Bread either in the fridge or in the freezer (depending on how long you want to keep it).

    • Refrigerator: place the Banana Bread in an airtight container or cover with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
    • Freezer: wrap the cake either whole or in portions in plastic wrap and place in an airtight container. This will prevent the cake from absorbing flavors from other foods in the freezer. You can store the cake in the freezer for up to 1 month. Allow to thaw completely before serving.

      For the cashews, does "crushed" mean "chopped"? Or does it mean "ground"?

        I mean a little crushed, slightly chopped.

      What is a good substitute for coconut oil in this recipe? Thanks!

      Hi. Is apple vinegar the same thing as apple cider vinegar?
      And, can I use soy milk or almond milk for the "plant based milk"?
      Thank you

        Hi, yes it‘s apple cider vinegar and yes you can use soy or almond milk 🙂 let me know how the banana brrad turns out!

          Actually, the result completely exceeded my expectations about the recipe and about vegan baking entirely! It's my first time baking vegan. I'm not vegan. I had a bias that vegan baked goods can ever taste good or retain any ounce of moisture. I do have questions though:

          1. What is the function of the apple cider vinegar?
          2. What is the rationale behind the 2 different degrees of oven heat?

          Thank you in advance for enlightening me.

      180 degrees? Fahrenheit? That's not a lot

        180 Celsius = 350F I hope it helps.

          Oof I’m over here putting it in at 180 degrees Fahrenheit, wondering why it looks the way it does 🤧

          Good morning! It’s 180 degrees Celsius not Fahrenheit ❤️
