The Recipe

Vegan banana bread with cherries and a marble chocolate ganache

Ingredients

For the cake:

Light batter:

4 over-ripe bananas, mashed

3/4 cups / 150 g sugar

3 cups / 380 g all-purpose flour

9 ounces / 250 g soft vegan butter at room temperature

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 1/4 cups / 300 ml plant based milk (I used oat milk)

Dark batter:

1/2 cup / 120 ml plant based milk (I used oat milk)

1/2 cup / 60 g dark cocoa powder (for baking)



225 g / 1 cup fresh or frozen cherries, pitted

For the ganache:

3.5 ounces / 100 g vegan dark chocolate

3.5 ounces / 100 g vegan white chocolate

2 tablespoons coconut oil

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 °C).

2. In a large mixing bowl stir together the mashed bananas, sugar, soft vegan butter and plant-based milk. Add the flour and the baking powder until combined.

3. Scoop half of the light batter into a new mixing bowl and add cocoa powder and the plant-based milk until combined.

4. Pour the light and dark cake batter alternating into a square cake pan. Distribute cherries evenly on top.

5. Bake for about 1 hour or until center is just set. Let cake cool.

6. Melt both vegan white and dark chocolate separately in a waterbath or in the microwave and combine each chocolate with 1 tablespoon coconut oil. Spoon both chocolate ganaches over the cake so that you get a marble pattern. Decorate with more fresh cherries, if desired. Slice and enjoy!
