If you’re looking for the simplest vegan treat ever — this banana + flour recipe is all you need! No eggs, no milk, no sugar, no butter, and no kneading required. Just pure, wholesome ingredients that come together to make soft, naturally sweet banana bread or muffins in minutes.
Perfect for busy mornings, healthy snacks, or guilt-free desserts! 🍌
Ingredients (makes 1 small loaf or 6 muffins)
- 2 large ripe bananas (the riper, the sweeter)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (or whole wheat flour for extra fiber)
(Optional add-ins for flavor)
- A pinch of baking powder (for fluffier texture)
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon or vanilla extract
- A handful of nuts, seeds, or raisins
Instructions
1. Mash the Bananas
Peel and mash the bananas in a bowl until smooth. The riper they are, the easier they mash and the sweeter your bread will be — no added sugar needed!
2. Add the Flour
Gradually add the flour to the mashed bananas. Mix with a spoon or spatula until well combined. The dough should be thick but easy to stir.
(If it feels too dry, add 1–2 tablespoons of water. If too wet, sprinkle a bit more flour.)
3. Shape or Pour
- For bread, pour the mixture into a small greased or parchment-lined loaf pan.
- For muffins, divide the batter evenly into muffin cups.
4. Bake
Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 25–30 minutes (muffins) or 35–40 minutes (loaf), until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
5. Cool and Enjoy
Let it cool before slicing. The texture will be soft, moist, and slightly chewy — naturally sweet from the bananas.
Tips for the Best Texture
- Use spotty, overripe bananas — they add moisture and sweetness.
- You can use oat flour, spelt flour, or gluten-free flour instead of wheat.
- Add crushed nuts or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor.

✅ 100% vegan
