Cinnamon Crunch Banana Bread
Ingredients
- 2 medium bananas
- 3 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1 Tbsp nut butter
- 3/4 cup + 1 Tbsp (200ml) plant milk
- 1 3/4 cup (215g) flour
- 1 Tsp cinnamon
- 2 Tsp baking powder
Streusel
- 1/2 cup (65g) flour
- 3 Tbsp Tahini (or any other nut butter)
- 3 Tbsp maple syrup
- 1 Tsp cinnamon
Preparation
Preheat the oven to 180°C (360°F).
Mash the bananas in a large bowl.
Add maple syrup, nut butter, and plant milk to the mashed bananas and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, and baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined, avoiding overmixing.
For the streusel, mix flour, tahini, maple syrup, and cinnamon in another bowl until crumbly.
Grease a loaf pan and pour the batter into it.
Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the batter.
Cover the streusel with foil to prevent burning.
Bake for 60-70 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
