Whether you're allergic to eggs, eating a vegan diet, or are just out of eggs, you're going to want to make this eggless banana bread. It's moist, fluffy, and made in just one bowl.

It takes just 10 minutes to prepare and bakes up into a dense, tender bread. If you wanted to, you could even turn the batter into eggless banana muffins, I've explained how to down below!

What Is Eggless Banana Bread?

The name pretty much sums it up, it's banana bread that's made without eggs. Traditional banana bread relies on eggs as a binder and to help the loaf rise, but I've created this recipe to do everything it's supposed to do but without the need for eggs!

It's moist, tender, and completely safe for someone with an egg allergy.

Ingredient Notes and Substitutions

*full list of ingredients and measurements can be found in recipe card below*

ingredients to make eggless banana bread labeled with black text.
  • Bananas: The riper the better when it comes to your bananas for this eggless banana bread!
  • Oil: I use avocado oil because it has a neutral flavor, but vegetable oil or melted coconut oil would also work
  • Sugar: I've found that regular granulated sugar works the best, but you could substitute it with brown sugar
  • Flour: I've made this banana bread with both regular flour and gluten free flour and prefer it with regular flour, but the gluten free is still really yummy!
  • Leavening agents: Both baking soda and baking powder are used for rise since there's no egg in here
  • Flavoring: I add both vanilla extract and salt to enhance the flavor of the banana and make this really yummy

Allergy and Diet Swaps

Serving Suggestions

This banana bread is so delicious on its own when fresh right out of the oven, but here's a few ways you could enhance it if you want!

  • Smear on some butter
  • Serve with a drizzle of peanut butter or chocolate spread

Storing and Freezing Eggless Banana Bread

STORING: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days.

FREEZING: Once your eggless banana bread is baked, slice it and wrap the individual slices tightly in plastic wrap. Place them into a freezer safe bag and store for up to 3 months. When you want a slice, unwrap it and thaw overnight or microwave with a damp paper towel until fully thawed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do I do if my bananas aren't ripe enough for banana bread?

If your bananas aren't ripe enough, you can bake them at 350F on a parchment lined baking sheet for about 15 minutes. Just let them cool before making your batter.

What is the best egg substitute for banana bread?

In this recipe, I just add extra mashed banana and some leavening agents to make up for the lack of egg. Unless a recipe is specifically created not to have an egg, you shouldn't just remove it.

Can I make this gluten free?

Yes, the banana bread is also delicious when made gluten free! all you have to do is substitute the all purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten free flour blend that contains xanthan gum.

What if I don't have avocado oil?

You can substitute it with any neutral oil like vegetable or canola, however I prefer not to use seed oils so I substitute with melted coconut oil or melted butter.

How can I make eggless banana muffins?

Line a muffin tin with paper liner and fill them ⅔ of the way full. Bake at 350F for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Expert Tips To Make The Best Eggless Banana Bread

  • Use really ripe bananas- the riper the better!
  • When mashing the bananas you want them almost liquidy, chunks banana won't make the bread as tender
  • Don't pack the flour into the measuring cup or else your bread will be dry
  • While you're mixing the batter, mix until the flour is just combined. You don't want to overmix
  • Add a glaze once the banana bread has fully cooled if you like!
