Chocolate Banana Bread
To make the gluten free chocolate banana bread, preheat oven to 375F.
Begin by preparing your flax eggs. In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoon of flaxseed meal with 4 tablespoon of warm water. Set aside
In a medium mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas. Then, mix with maple syrup, melted vegan butter, almond or oat milk (if using), and vanilla. Then, add in the flax eggs, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix well.
Add cocoa powder, mix until smooth. Then, add oat flour and mix until combined. Fold in chocolate chips and pour the batter into a 9x5 loaf pan sprayed with baking spray. Option to top the loaf with more chocolate chips!
Bake in the oven for about 40-50 minutes (depending on heat of the oven). Poke the gluten free chocolate banana bread with a toothpick to make sure it's done.
