Delectable Olive Oil Banana Bread

Yes, banana bread with olive oil is definitely delicious like this Vegan banana waffle. I can’t wait for you to taste how absolutely delicious it is. The first time I tried making this recipe, the result wasn’t very good.

Thank God I tried it again and the result was better. You’ll love how moist and dense the texture of this banana bread is. You’ll also find that you appreciate the healthy addition of extra virgin olive oil and white whole wheat flour.

I just want to mention that just because Using these particular ingredients doesn’t mean you have to. You can substitute regular olive oil and regular flour if you wish.

For your information -You can’t even taste the olive oil in this banana bread. If you’re really worried about the taste, just make sure you use a mild-flavored olive oil.

If I were you, I would stick with using The firstborn Olive oil instead of olive oil. Of course, you can use any type you prefer. More on that later..

What to love about this banana bread:

It’s whole grain

Of course, as I mentioned before; Banana bread with olive oil is absolutely delicious. Besides, this banana bread contains healthy whole grains of white whole wheat flour.

I know I said you could substitute all-purpose flour instead, but whole wheat flour adds a healthier texture. But the texture is not as dense as if you used regular whole wheat flour.

White whole wheat flour is a lighter wheat, so anything you bake with it won’t be as heavy. The texture will be more lighter. At one point, I thought it was a combination of regular and whole wheat flour; But this is not the issue.

No eggs required

Most non-vegetarian banana bread recipes require the addition of eggs. Not this banana bread! It comes out completely without eggs. Since I’ve also experimented with creating vegan recipes, I’ve found that you don’t always need eggs for every baking recipe. This can even include regular ones Non-vegetarian Recipes.

This certainly doesn’t mean a reduction in flavor either. If you think about it: eggs themselves have no flavor. So they don’t contribute any flavor to anything. They just help add structure to the baked product.

For this reason, some recipes do not contain eggs (Mainly cakes, muffins, etc.) will include the addition of apple cider vinegar. Apple cider vinegar helps add structure. It also helps the baked product rise better. Basically, it does the job that white people do.

It’s very easy to make

There’s nothing I hate more than needing a bunch of ingredients and equipment to make a simple recipe. I’m sure you feel the same. Of course in some cases, you need a specific device; Such as hand blender, grater, blender, etc.

But in most cases, we are not in a good mood; right? Well, fortunately; This banana bread recipe doesn’t require much to prepare. All you really need is a large bowl, a smaller bowl for mashing bananas, and some tools.
