I've wanted to make Vegan Gluten Free Banana Bread for a long time, and I finally took the plunge. This recipe, along with a bunch of other baked goods has been my latest craze in the kitchen.
If you like a sweet breakfast, this banana bread is a delicious way to start your morning. It has just the right amount of sweetness and banana flavor.
It's also great after a meal, or as a snack. It is sweet, moist, and flavorful.
Have ripe bananas you need to use up? This is a great way to make use of them. Also, this banana bread freezes well if you want to save the leftovers for later.
Other banana recipes to make are my Campfire Stuffed Bananas, Vegan Banana Ice Cream with Chocolate Peanut Butter Sauce, Banana Chocolate Pizza, and Peanut Butter Porridge with Banana.

- It's a great way to use up ripe bananas.
- Made in about an hour, it's simple and easy to make.
🧾 Ingredients
- Ripe bananas: Ripe bananas work best because the starch has converted into sugar. If you like to freeze bananas, like I do, you can use frozen bananas for this recipe. Just make sure to thaw the frozen bananas first. Also, make sure the bananas are really ripe before freezing.
- Granulated sugar: You may want to check brands that are vegan. Wholesome makes vegan organic cane sugar. There are other brands that have white sugar as well.
- Vegan butter: I used salted Melt Organic plant-based butter because that is the only vegan butter my grocery store had in stock. You could use your favorite vegan butter.
- Vanilla extract: Enhances flavors.
- Gluten-free 1:1 baking flour: I used Bob's Red Mill. You could use your favorite gluten-free flour blend. As long as it is a 1:1 baking flour, it should produce good results.
- Baking soda: Allows the bread to rise.
- Nutmeg: Adds a warm spice flavor.
- Salt: Enhances sweetness and balances flavors. I like to use sea salt.
