Banana bread is a great solution to use up those leftover bananas. It also tastes delicious too, especially when combined with chocolate. This recipe is gluten free and suitable for vegans which is an added bonus.

A fab bake! I used standard flour (as didn’t need it to be gf). I would reduce the amount of sugar next time as it was very sweet! A great tasting cake though!
Love this?

Great Recipe, Cake tastes great and you would not even notice it is GF & Vegan. I think I reduced the cocoa powder though as it was a bit too much.
However for those who are gluten Free you need to be careful and sub White vinegar for a different vinegar as it is NOT GF as it contains Malt barley which contains gluten. I think I used whatever I had in the cupbaord, might have been cider vinegar and worked fine. As I bake for a living I am very aware of allergens and luckily noticed this small mistake, as I was making this to sell. Please edit your recipe as not everyone is aware.But overall happy with the recipe :)
