Ingredients

  • 3 over-ripe bananas
  • 3 tbsp oat milk
  • 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 80 coconut sugar or light brown sugar
  • 60 g coconut oil (melted)
  • 250 g all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt (plus salt flakes to sprinkle the freshly baked loaf with)
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 100 g vegan chocolate chips (plus more for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C/356°C and line a loaf tin with parchment paper.
  2. The batter: To make the homemade buttermilk, combine the oat milk nd apple cider vinegar in a small bowl. In another bowl, mash the bananas, then add in the melted coconut oil, homemade buttermilk, vanilla extract and sugar. In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and ground cinnamon. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry, and fold together until nearly combined. Add in the vegan chocolate chips, and fold until well combined.
  3. Baking: Pour batter into a pre-lined loaf tin, sprinkle over more chocolate chips (I go heavy handed!) Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a knife comes out clean once inserted in the center.
  4. Final touches: Sprinkle the freshly baked loaf with sea salt flakes, allow to cool slightly, then serve warm!
