THE MORE YOU KNOW
Flour
Check out my guide to decide which type of flour you may want to use.
Vegan Egg Replacer
I recommend using a Flaxseed Egg, which is a combination of Flaxseed Meal and Water. But, there are other great alternatives that you can use instead. Here are other great Vegan Egg Replacement ideas that you may use as well.
Maple Syrup
There are a variety of different sweeteners that you can use instead of maple syrup such as agave, stevia, brown rice syrup, or honey. You will need to add more liquid if you use brown rice syrup or honey.

- 2 cup Flour
- 1 tbsp Baking Powder
- 1 tbsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1 cup Banana smashed (about 3 bananas)
- ¼ cup Maple Syrup
- 1 Flaxseed Egg
- ⅓ cup Chocolate chips or Nuts optional
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F, then prepare Muffin Pan or Loaf Pan with oil, butter, or cupcake liners / parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, mix Flaxseed Meal with Water. Let this sit for 5 minutes to thicken and create the flaxseed egg.

- In a large mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and slowly mix by folding (don’t over mix the batter).
- Once batter is mixed, gently fold in Chocolate Chips or Nuts.
- Pour batter into Loaf or Muffin pan. Bake Loaf for 45-55 minutes. Bake Muffins for 20-30 minutes.
- Allow Loaf or Muffins to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack. If you are planning to freeze, then freeze loaf or muffins while still warm to lock in the moisture.
- Enjoy!
