This easy dairy free banana bread is everything you know and love about banana bread, made without butter or sour cream. It's packed with sweet banana flavor, a warm hint of spice, and that incredible moist, tender texture — perfect for a quick breakfast or satisfying afternoon snack.

Ingredients

For the banana bread:
  • ½ cup canola oil
  • ½ cup unsweetened plain coconut yogurt
  • ½ cup lightly packed brown sugar (110g)
  • ½ cup sugar (100g)
  • 1 cup mashed ripe banana (250g, about 3 medium bananas)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (240g)
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon coarse salt
Optional mix-ins:
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts (toasted)
  • ½ - ¾ cup dairy free semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Mise en place. Preheat your oven to 350˚F (180˚C) and grease a 9x5 loaf pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving a little overhang on the sides for easy removal. Then, measure out the remaining ingredients before you begin.
  • Mix the wet ingredients. Using a fork, mash the bananas in a large mixing bowl. Then, whisk in the oil, yogurt, eggs, sugar and vanilla extract. Mix together until smooth. Set aside.
  • Mix the dry ingredients. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly distributed.
  • Combine the batter. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula until just combined, be careful not to over-mix. If using, fold in chopped walnuts or chocolate chips or walnuts.
  • Bake the banana bread. Transfer the batter to your prepared pan and bake for 55–60 minutes, or until the top is deep golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Cool completely. Remove the banana bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, use the parchment paper to lift it out and transfer to a wire cooling rack. Allow it cool to room temperature (at least 20–30 minutes) before slicing.
