let's try vegan Banana Bread

Here's a recipe for Banana Bread that I've veganized. It could still use some tweaking...The first time I tried it, it was too wet. The second time I tried it, I reduced the amount of applesauce and added more oats (measurements noted below). You also have to be more patient with baking time. Go ahead and let it bake longer if need be. Enjoy! Let me know how it goes, and what improvements can be made.

Goods:

• 1 c all-purpose flour
• 1 c whole wheat flour
• ¼ tsp salt
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 c rolled oats (optional)
• 2 tbs vegetable or canola oil
• ½ c unsweetened applesauce
• ¾ c brown sugar
• 2 tbs flax seed meal + 6 tbs water
• 2 c mashed bananas
• ½ c chopped walnuts (optional)
• ½ c chocolate chips (optional)

Action Plan:

• Preheat oven to 350° F
1) In a smaller bowl, combine flours, baking soda, salt and oats, and mix well.
2) In a larger bowl, stir together oil, applesauce, brown sugar, egg replacement and bananas.
3) Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just moist.
4) Pour into a greased loaf pan and bake for 1 hour. Test with a skewer and bake addition 5-15 minutes until cooked through.
