Dairy – Free Banana Cake (vegan)

Vegan Banana Cake

This dairy-free banana cake is a cross between a light cake and a dense banana bread. Kids go BANANAS for it! It’s great as-is for lunchbox snacks, but my favorite way to eat it is topped with dairy-free coconut whipped cream, sliced bananas, and a drizzle of dairy-free caramel sauce from Hey Boo. You can also mix in chocolate chips, nuts, or a handful of shredded coconut. It’s easy to make, uses only one bowl, and is also vegan. You can double the recipe, cut it into squares and freeze some for later, too! 

I use coconut oil in this cake, but feel free to substitute with any light tasting oil or your favorite vegan butter. It’s important to mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined. Overmixing will cause your cake to have a tough, unpleasant texture.

The cake will keep on your counter at room temperature for a few days if tightly covered. Although, I doubt it will last that long!
