NOTES
Your bananas should be very ripe with lots of brown spots. This will ensure the bananas are sweet enough and will yield the best flavor.
This recipe can be made oil free if desired. Swap the 3 tbsp of coconut oil for 3 tbsp of apple sauce. This will yield a slightly different texture, but it will still be delicious.
You can use any plant milk in place of soy milk, however, because soy milk is higher in protein than other plant based milks, it does yield a fluffier bread. If you use a different milk, let us know in the comments how it turns out!
