One-Bowl Chocolate Banana Bread

Wow!!! I made this tonight and am amazed at how fluffy and delicious it is. This was only my second time using a flax egg and it was super easy. I was able to swap out AP flour for oat flour (1:1 ratio, for anyone else who wants to go gluten free or has oats they want to get rid of!). I didn't have veg oil so used canola. I also omitted the sugar and sprinkled vegan dark chocolate chips on top for some sweetness instead. I made my own applesauce using my InstantPot and it worked perfectly! Thank you for my new go to banana bread recipe Sadia! 🤗

Hi Sadia! ☺️ What type of oven are you using in the video that rotates??

PUL Team - Jan. 16, 2022, 8:42 p.m.

Hey Jessica, it's a "combi" oven (works as both a microwave and oven on different settings) - it's one we used to have in our old apartment at the time the video was made. But now we make the banana bread all the time using a regular oven. I hope you enjoy it if you give it a try!

I made this banana cake today and it was delicious! Just omitted the vanilla as I didn't have it, but the flavour of the bananas and the cinnamon seem to be perfectly enough. I have tried different banana bread recipes over the last year, and didn't think I liked them with chocolate, but this one convinced me. Next time, I'll try a chopped chocolate bar, I used chocolate chips and it doesn't look as pretty as yours does :-) Thank you for this lovely recipe.

I’ve made this recipe many times before, and I love it. I have a friend that he’s diabetic and his wife is doesn’t get along with gluten. So I decided to try and make this bread for them. I substitute AP flour for oat flour (blending oats), using Greek yogurt instead of applesauce, and honey instead of sugar. My, my! the bread was delicious, still kept all the moist and flavor from the original recipe but with more wholesome ingredients for those who worry about gluten and sugar.

So moist and tasty 🤤 this is the best recipe I tried! I did leave out the sugar and added a little bit of maple syrup as the bananas were super ripped and sweet already and used spelt flour. Made it last night and and my boyfriend already ate half 😅

Favorite recipe. Everybody loves this banana bread

This banana bread recipe is hands down my favorite thing ever. I've made it atleast three times now and it's not failed me even once. It's very difficult to find applesauce here in India, so I experimented and made my own and it has worked wonderfully for me. I even swap the all purpose flour for whole-wheat flour and usually top mine off with walnuts as well.

I just wanted to let you know everyone at home loves this recipe as well so now whenever we have overripe bananas that no one wants to eat, I make this.

PUL Team - Nov. 24, 2021, 7:44 p.m.

Aw thank you, Rachna, we appreciate the kind words so much! We're so happy the banana bread is being enjoyed and the substitutions sound lovely ☺️

What could I do if I don’t have apple sauce on hand?

PUL Team - Nov. 19, 2021, 2 a.m.

Hiya Rae! You can substitute the apple sauce for equal parts of neutral vegetable oil. We've heard some positive reviews with coconut oil as well. If you're feeling adventurous, you could experiment with homemade applesauce, plant-based Greek yogurt, or another pureed fruit, such as pears or sweet potato. We hope this helps for now 😃

This banana bread is now the only one I need! I've made it twice in the last two weeks, the second time for people who came over for dinner. They were rightfully obsessed.

Hello! I once made this substituting half the amount of chocolate with almonds and it was delicious and fluffy. I would now like to try it without sugar altogether as i am trying to avoid sugar in my diet as much as i can. Do you think there will be any change to humidity/consistency/baking time? could you please advise?

Also, if you have some natural sugar advice like dates or dried apricots, could you please share?

Thanks!

PUL Team - Oct. 31, 2021, 7:59 p.m.

Hi there, Chiara, almonds sound delicious! We haven't tested out the recipe without sugar, so we can't say for certain. We have had some positive reviews using half of the recommended sugar, so perhaps this may be an idea to start with.

In case you're interested and haven't already seen it already, you may be interested in our Guide to Sugar pickuplimes.com/article/a-gui… for some tips😊

Hello! What can I swab the vegetable oil for? Can I swap it for Coconut oil (and the measurement)?

PUL Team - Oct. 26, 2021, 4:21 a.m.

Hello, Vaibhavi! Thanks for the question. We haven't tested it out, but imagine that equal parts melted coconut oil would work. We'd recommend refined coconut oil if you don’t want too much coconut taste/aroma. If it solidifies in contact with the colder ingredients, stirring it to naturally warm it should help as well. We hope you enjoy the banana bread 🍌

The bread came out fluffy and full of flavour. Great recipe!

Made this and it turned out so good!! Personally would add less chocolate (just my personal preference, my friends (non-vegans) had no complaints). Was worried it would stick to the pan but it didn't, was overall great! Sending lots of love to the PUL team!

It‘s simply delicious! Especially with some roasted pecans or other nuts. Even my non-vegan friends love it!

Hey PUL team,

I'm currently making the recipe and I noticed a possible small mistake in the nutritional info. It says there's 0g of added sugar in it though the recipe contains 100g of granulated sugar. Also, do you think the sugar could be replaced using dates? If yes, in which quantity?
PUL is my latest and favourite find for beautifully made, fun videos and super smart recipe website. I love the attention that's been put into it.

Groetjesss van Evien uit Veldhoven

PUL Team - Sept. 14, 2021, 4:42 a.m.

Hey Evien, great catch with the nutrition info! We've updated it now, and many thanks for bringing it to our attention 🤓 As for using dates instead, we haven't tried it so I can't say with confidence. Personally, I wouldn't advise subbing out the sugar for dates, but I'm sure it'd still taste delicious if you decide to try it out. It might help to know that dates have some inherent moisture, which will likely make the mixture a bit more wet and dense. The cooking time might also be altered with the addition of dates. If you do choose to try it out, let us know how you find it! 😊

Friederike - Sept. 17, 2021, 4 p.m.

I replaced the granulated sugar for granulated date sugar which tastes amazing!

Practical question: is there a way to achieve an "egg" without flaxseeds (and staying vegan of course) ?
The area where I live in does not have any flaxseeds at all, nor chia seeds or all of these goodnesses.
I would very much like to honour all of PUL's baking recipes, but am facing a wall now...

PUL Team - Sept. 3, 2021, 4:01 a.m.

Hey Alica, that's a lovely question! It may depend on the recipe. If chia or flax seeds are inaccessible, the next best bet may be substituting the flax/chia seeds and water with ½ a ripe mashed banana or ¼- ½ cup of another pureed fruit such as unsweetened applesauce, canned pumpkin, or pureed prunes. Your local store may have a vegan egg replacement powder as well depending on where home is for you. We hope this helps for now 🤗

I made this a few days ago and it's yummy! I didn't have applesauce so I made my own and it was fine. I also added walnuts in the mixture for an extra crunch and topped it with chopped pistachios. SO GOOD. def recommend making this!

Hi Sadia, absolutely love this banana bread and have made it countless times! If I only make half the batter (because I only have a small baking tin), will baking time reduce by a lot? I think that is one thing missing with the scalable recipe: baking time & also tin size don’t adapt with it, which I understand is complicated but can lead to the recipe not working when it’s a baking one :) I know it might to common sense but you’d be surprised what I’ve done wrong over the years just blindly following instructions hahaha - Thank you xxx

PUL Team - Aug. 23, 2021, 9:27 p.m.

Hey there, Sarah! Thanks a bunch for the feedback. It's super helpful to hear 😊 It's indeed tricky to adjust the cooking time if changing the portion size, as it will also depend on the pan and oven used. If we had to guess for halving the recipe, checking on it around 30 minutes in might be a good start. We hope this helps! In the meantime, we've noted down the suggestion to consider for future website improvements 😃

Made this yesterday and it was so easy. I didn't have the applesauce so I just sub it with 1/4 coconut oil. It tastes so good. My husband loved it. I'll make this again after I make homemade applesauce. Thanks, Sadia for these plant-based recipes.

I love this one. I have made it countless times because it is so easy and great so save Bananas I have forgotten about. And I got loads of compliments and questions to share the recipe. An I am always happy to do it

This is the best banana bread! Simple as that... And sometimes I don’t have all the ingredients (because I honestly bake this cake a couple of time per months) so instead of apple sauce you can had an apple if you are too lazy to make your own, or less oil… you can play and add walnuts, or do it without chocolate, change the flour for a gluten-free, sometimes plain flour… it will be good anyway.
It’s a huge success every time I do it. Even for my non-vegan friends. It’s mind blowing 💕💕💕

I tried it, I love it.. This is THE banana bread recipe. Even my non-vegan friends agree.

I love this recipe, this is the first vegan banana bread recipe that's worked for me! Realised after starting on it that i had run out of applesauce so I replaced it with an equal volume of vegetable oil and it came out so great!! Also subbed the chocolate out for walnuts, just eyeballed the ratio for that, and that may have been my favourite part. Devoured the whole thing by myself in 3 days! Shared this recipe with so many friends as well. Thank you!!!

This is my favourite banana bread recipe and the only one I've been making for almost 2 years now. Honestly, my family, my friends and friends' friends adore it. However, like someone else pointed out, there's a change in amount of flour. To be honest, the previous version with 280gr works perfectly for me. The cake is fluffy, moist and it raises perfectly. There was just one time that I used the other amount of flour, and I didn't like the outcome, it wasn't "my cup of tea". Just a thought, but maybe it would be a good idea to keep both amounts, depending on how "bready" you want your cake to be.

PUL Team - July 23, 2021, 5:10 a.m.

Hey Maja, thanks for sharing this! It's super helpful 😊 I've made this banana bread more times than I can count, but I've always measured it in cups rather than in grams. After reading your comment, I took my cup measurements over to our scale and weighed it out to be sure. For us, it came out to be 231g in total, so I've updated the recipe to reflect this - thanks again for bringing it to my attention 🤓 Although this number is a bit higher than what it was before, it's still not quite at 280g. If I've done my math correctly, 280g would be about 2 cups + 2Tbsp, whereas this recipe calls for 1¾ cups of flour. I feel like indeed the 280g would work well also - as you've mentioned - resulting in a more "cake-like" consistency and perhaps a little less moist/dense than the version we usually make. In any case, I've bought some bananas and when they're ripe enough, I'll try this recipe using the 280g of flour because now I'm curious 😜🍌 Thanks again, Maja!

Hii. This looks so tempting. Can I make this in a round cake pan? That's what I have with me. Should I change measurements accordingly? Please please respond. Thank you so much. Lots of love <3

PUL Team - July 21, 2021, 3:38 a.m.

Hey Archa, thanks for the question! It may depend on the size of the desired cake pan. We'd recommend at least a 9×2 inch round pan and continuing to bake until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean. If we had to guess, it may take closer to 50 minutes. Do let us know how it goes if you give the recipe a try 🙂

LOved the recipe... one feedback it is actually little confusing where it says 1 3/4 flour, I ended up adding 1 + 3/4 cups only to realize that it is just 3/4 cup flour.

I had to choose between making this banana bread either in a big tray or in a muffin tray, so I went with the muffin one. It turned out delicious! I wasn't sure for how long to bake them, so I started checking them after 15 minutes mark. I opened the oven 4 or 5 times, until they were done around 40-45 minutes since popping them in (on 180C). If anyone has figured out the exact baking time for this recipe the muffin way and could share it here, it'd be helpful for making my next batch :)

Such a compliment, baerenappetit, so glad you're enjoying the recipe! Indeed it looks like the grams amount changed.

I am going to try making this today using either coconut or cassava flour (or a mix of both) & date sugar. Looks like a great recipe! I've been craving banana bread but have been looking for a healthier recipe. This looks super promising! I'll report back after I make it. :)

Stephanie - July 10, 2021, 7:41 p.m.

Update: It was delicious but slightly under-baked! I kept it in 35 mins, but 40-50 would have been much better. It's trial & error baking with coconut flour. :)

Stephanie - July 12, 2021, 2:08 p.m.

Another Update! LOL. I made it a second time and used just cassava flour - it was definitely more moist and overall had a better consistency. The loaf could have still used 5-10 more mins in my oven. I might try doing muffins instead of bread next time. This recipe is awesome and makes my mom and me feel good that we are using healthy, wholesome ingredients! :)

Like so many others, this was one of the first recipes I tried when I found your YT channel.

My boyfriend and me love this recipe. We make a banana bread per week now!

I've been making this bread since I found your page and its perfection!

I've been a (really big) fan of Pick up Limes and Sadia's recipe's for some years now. This recipe is one of the first I tried out and since I made it for the first time, I've baked this banana bread practically every other week or even weekly. I have halved the amount of chocolate in my recipe and I leave the chocolate out for my husband as he prefers it that way (strange!) and I've also reduced the amount sugar as it would be just wrong to eat it like this as often as I enjoy it. The beauty of this recipe is that it is very easy to make your own because it comes out great if you play around with the amount of certain ingredients as well. It's super easy and efficient to make as a one-bowl-bread and it's made from pantry ingredients. Also, it freezes well. I always bake one to take with me when I go on holiday - I have some waiting for me now whilst I write this from a holiday home. I highly recommend making it in muffin moulds instead of a cake tin if you're hungry and appreciate the crispy outside of the bread as much as I do.

To say my friends and I love this recipe is an understatement. All friends who bake have asked for the recipe and are delighted by how easy it is. I used to bring this to university to eat with friends after class all the time. I'm not used to vegan baking (vegetarian here) so I'm very pleased by how easy it is to make and that I already have everything I need in my cupboards.

My father-in-law, who is extremely picky, and never touches any food that has 'vegan, 'non-diary', 'low fat, 'organic', 'gluten free', and other 'modern weird stuff' in the title, absolutely loves this bread.
I swap chocolate chips for walnuts and use vegan butter instead of vegetable oil. Everything else is exactly as in your recipe.
When I told the family that I'm going to bake this bread again this Saturday, their faces brightened instantly. :)
Thanks a lot for the recipe. Also, I have to say, that the new website is wonderful - faster and more convenient than the old one, and I absolutely love the recalculating feature - very cool and useful, thanks!

This bread was good that it should be illegal. I swapped out the regular all-purpose flour for a gluten free for obvious reasons. It has been a huge hit among my carnivorous family members.

I personally am not a huge fan of chocolate, but the recipe had just enough of it in it. I look forward to making this again.
