Happy Herbivore Banana Bread (dairy-free, fat-free, egg-free, low sugar, whole grain, and delicious and moist!)


1/4 cup of non dairy milk (e.g. soy, almond, rice, etc)
1/4 tsp lemon juice
4-5 spotted or browning bananas
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1/2 cup raw sugar
(**I replaced both with 1 cup of coconut sugar**)
1 tsp gound cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 cups whole wheat flour (I use organic whole wheat pastry flour)
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp pure maple syrup

preheat the oven to 350.  Grease or spray a standard 8 inch loaf pan

whisk the non dairy milk and lemon juice together until bubbly

cream bananas with sugars by hand using a spatula or in a food processor until smooth

in a large bowl, whisk spices, flour, baking soda, and baking powder together

add milk-lemon juice and banana mixture, as well as all remaining ingredients, to the flour mixture and stir until just combined

pour into loaf pan, using a spatula to evenly distribute and smooth out the top

make a tent over the pan with a large piece of aluminum foil

bake 45 minutes to 1 hour or until a toothpick comes out clean

***I added nuts:)***
****I skipped most of the steps and started by mashing the bananas in the bottom of my kitchen aid mixture and poured everything else in and mixed together;)  came out just fine and less dishes;)****
