WHY YOU’LL LOVE THIS RECIPE
INGREDIENTS & SUBSTITUTIONS
Peanut butter
This 5 ingredient vegan banana bread calls for peanut butter but you can sub any type of granola butter, chickpea butter, peanut butter or other nut butter. Anything with the consistency of peanut butter can be subbed. You can even sub chocolate hummus or tahini if you cannot eat nuts. This recipe is vegan so make sure to use a vegan substitute.
Applesauce
This 5 ingredient vegan banana bread recipe calls for apple sauce. You can choose either unsweetened or sweetened apple sauce based on how sweet you want the banana bread to be. Store bought is fine and if you do not have it you can make your own applesauce at home. The idea is to add moisture to the recipe. If you do not have apples you can use mashed bananas or pumpkin puree instead. This recipe is vegan so make sure to use a vegan substitute.
Gluten free flour
For this 5 ingredient bread recipe I used a 1:1 gluten free flour blend. Cup 4 cup and bob’s red mill both offer 1:1 substitutes that you can use in place of wheat flour without changing the amount. You can use wheat flour if you prefer but to keep it gluten free the 1:1 flour blend is the best bet! I have not tried this recipe with oat flour, coconut flour, almond flour or any other nut flour.

TASTE & TEXTURE
This banana bread moist in the middle and best served warm with some vegan butter. Its a healthy option because it uses applesauce so you can eat as many slices as you want.
