Method
 

Directions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan with vegan butter or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mash 3-4 overripe bananas until smooth. Mix in 1/2 cup melted vegan butter, 1/4 cup maple syrup, 1/4 cup almond milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  4. Gradually stir in 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats into the wet mixture, mixing just until no dry flour remains.
  5. Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle half of your cinnamon swirl mixture over the batter and swirl gently.
  6. Pour the remaining batter into the pan and repeat with the rest of the cinnamon swirl mixture, swirling gently again.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, checking at 50 minutes for doneness with a toothpick.
  8. Let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  9. For frosting, mix 1/2 cup softened vegan cream cheese with powdered sugar, if desired.
