Does the world really need another banana bread recipe? When it's this good, it does. This bread is sweet, rich and comforting whilst still feeling super light and fluffy.

Two of our favourite things are baking and finding creative ways of using food that might otherwise go to waste. Baking vegan banana bread doesn’t just satisfy both of those desires, it also yields an irresistible bake.

This nutritious recipe contains our best-selling Chocolate Vegan Protein Blend, making it perfect for a post-workout treat or healthy mid-afternoon snack. Then, it's also ladened in Organic Chia Seeds and Gluten-Free Rolled Oats for a great kick of healthy fats and fibre in every slice.

We don’t think banana bread gets any better than this, so why not give it a try and see if you think we’re right?

Chop the chocolate and stir ¾ into the mix and pour into loaf tin.
Sprinkle remaining on top and slice the remaining banana length ways so you have two long pieces, place on top of the batter and sprinkle over the chia seeds and oats, bake for 45 minutes.
