Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare your loaf pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.
  3. Combine mashed bananas, melted vegan butter, maple syrup, almond or oat milk, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Whisk until smooth.
  4. Mix the dry ingredients: baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, flour, and rolled oats in a separate bowl.
  5. Fold the dry mixture gently into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  6. Create the cinnamon swirl by mixing melted vegan butter, light brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  7. Layer the batter: pour half in first, drizzle half of the cinnamon swirl, then add the remaining batter and finish with the rest of the swirl.
  8. Bake for about 45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Cool the bread in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
  10. Optional: Mix powdered sugar, melted vegan butter, and softened cream cheese for a glaze and drizzle over cooled bread.
