Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup non-dairy milk
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ⅔ cup cane sugar (or 1/3 cup brown sugar +1/3 cup granulated sugar)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 ripe bananas
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp vanilla
  • 1 cup blueberries or chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350˚ F and lightly grease a 9-inch loaf pan.
  • In a small bowl, combine the milk and vinegar. Let it sit as you move to the next steps. It will begin to curdle and make a buttermilk.
  • In another small bowl, combine the dry ingredients (flour through salt).
  • In a large bowl, mash the bananas well, then stir in the oil and vanilla.
  • Gently mix the dry ingredients into the wet.
  • Add the milk mixture and gently stir to combine. Don’t overmix; the batter will be thick.
  • Fold in blueberries or chocolate chips, if using.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top. Sprinkle with extra chocolate chips to decorate (optional).
  • Bake for 45 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool before slicing.
