The Vegan Banana Bread Recipe That Will Change Your Life Forever
I have very distinct memories from my childhood that involve eating banana bread. One specific memory I have is visiting one of our family friend's house after school and always having banana bread as a snack. I think that's where my love for banana bread began. I don't know about you guys, but I'm a big fan of warm, gooey banana bread, perhaps because it makes me nostalgic about my childhood. There's something about this bread that makes it impossible for my friends and I to stop eating it. Whenever I make a batch, it's gone within a couple hours. I guess that's why I call it the BEST Vegan Banana Bread Ever, and I bet you will all agree!

#spoontip: Please note when I say "set" for this recipe the center will always be a little moist because of the ingredients used. So as long as it's not runny and you feel comfortable eating it, you're good to go!

Now, here are a few notes on flaxseed egg replacements. Over the years, I have tried out several types of egg replacements. Flaxseed has proved to be the best option for baking, since it acts as a perfect binding agent for any sweet breads, brownies, and muffins a like! For every egg that a recipe calls for, I typically use 2 tablespoons of flaxseed and 3 tablespoons of boiling water. However, other food blogs I have read suggest using 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed and 2 1/2 tablespoons boiling water. Either way, you get about the same result.
