This was a collaboration with Weetabix & Alpro to come up with a plant based swap for Veganuary. Something beyond pouring oat milk onto Weetabix. I don’t know about you but I just warm comforting food during these dark cold months and I know Banana Bread is sooo 2020/Pandemic Food but this is a Loaf - there’s a difference, no? It’s low in refined sugar and eaten warm it will convince you that the day ahead will be great. It’s also a handy sandwich swap for the lunch boxes.
Vegan Banana Loaf with Weetabix & Alpro Recipe
Dry Ingredients
180g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 Weetabix crushed
75g dried fruit
50g light brown sugar
Wet Ingredients
3 bananas mashed
70ml olive oil
50ml Alpro Oat Milk
extra banana peeled and cut in half
maple syrup to glaze (optional)
Method
Pre-heat the oven to 170C (fan), line a loaf tin with parchment.
Add all the dry ingredients to a bowl, mix to combine. In a separate bowl add the wet ingredients and mix. Add the wet mixture to the dry and mix thoroughly. Pour into the lined tin, add the extra sliced banana to the top and bake for 45-50 mins.
Allow to cool in the tin for about 10 mins, then remove and brush the top with maple syrup. Slice and serve warm.
This will keep in an airtight container for 3 days.
