We are really embracing pumpkin season around here and this Vegan Pumpkin Banana Bread is just the beginning.

This bread is so rich and delicious but is lightened up by using maple syrup in place of sugar and non-dairy milk instead of oil. Believe me, you won’t miss either one. This is still plenty sweet (especially with the addition of chocolate chips).

How to make Vegan Pumpkin Banana Bread

This bread is sooooooooo easy. Take some overly-ripe bananas and mash them in a bowl. Add the rest of the wet ingredients and stir to combine.

Next, mix together your dry ingredients. I used white flour, but you can also swap it for wheat. I haven’t tried this with gluten-free flour, but I assume it will still work just fine.

Combine it all together and stir in some chocolate chips. Add it to a lined bread pan and bake it for 45-60 minutes. Be prepared for your house to smell amazing during this hour of baking.

Are chocolate chips vegan?

The short answer…some chocolate chips are vegan. Obviously milk chocolate is a no-go. But dark chocolate should be fine and semi-sweet should also be fine.

Be sure to always check the label. For example, the semi-sweet chips at Trader Joe’s are vegan. But their semi-sweet chunks are NOT vegan. So silly, but better to check the label at the store than figure it out later.

How to store leftover Vegan Pumpkin Banana Bread

I like to store leftovers in glass containers in the fridge. The flavors will just continue to get stronger as it sits and I personally love eating a cold piece for breakfast.

You can always give it a quick reheat in the microwave too!
