Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 1-pound (8 ½ x 4 ½-inch) loaf pan with parchment paper, letting it fold over the sides for easier removal.

Step 2

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or using a hand mixer), add the coconut oil, dark brown sugar, cane sugar, and bananas. Mix on low until the sugar and coconut oil is combined, you may still see chunks of bananas.

Step 3

Add the pumpkin purée, almond milk, flour, pumpkin spice, baking powder, and sea salt, and mix on low until combined. Transfer the batter to the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.

Step 4

Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. (If you are baking at high altitude, make sure to follow the instructions in the Notes section at the bottom of the recipe). Allow to cool completely in the baking pan.

FAQ's

Can I use another kind of milk besides almond milk?

Yes, you can substitute the almond milk for coconut milk or oat milk. And if you are not vegan, you can also substitute it for regular whole milk.

Can I use light brown sugar in place of dark brown sugar?

Light brown sugar and dark brown sugar are interchangeable as far as the recipe goes, it will not alter the science of the recipe. But they do have different flavors, with dark brown sugar having more molasses than light brown sugar. This results in a different tasting recipe. If you were to use light brown sugar in place of dark brown sugar in this recipe, it would be a lighter tasting bread.

How should I store banana bread?

This is a soft and moist bread, just like traditional banana bread. So, it needs to be stored in an airtight container. That can be a Tupperware or a Ziploc bag. It will also keep for longer if stored in the fridge, but it does not have to be refrigerated.
