[@46pirate]

Not baked anything for years but had a go at this on Saturday and it turned out perfect, love using the flax egg.

[@oOMsLeneOo]

OMG!! I baked this yesterday and it is just amaaaaazing! So incredible moist, wonderful sweetness and banana flavor, slightly nutty and a touch of cinnamon and vanilla! Thank you so much for sharing this perfection! I just love the recipe and can't wait to try the next one. This will be your healthy brownies, made out of sweet potatoes. I really love your work, guys. Keep it up!

[@moustafamortada]

I was a bit hesitant to go ahead baking it because of few unappealing comments! Today I was like what the hell let's do it. You guys never fail me as usual .. absolutely lush! Love it. Thank you thank you!

[@gerrygold9273]

I love Elsie she did a great job. The Banana bread looks great. I can't wait to try it.

[@thehappypear]

[@helenhurd7391]

[@teresakilburn2816]

Just made this recipe. Gorgeous. I used the 2tbsp flaxseed option from the written recipe above, divided into a x12 muffin tin and baked for 35mins. Delicious. Thank you 👍🏻😊

Great recipe. As my children can't have any nuts in school I add sunflower seeds instead of walnuts, works great! Also make them as muffins!!

[@lilymcgeough7907]

I just made this and substituted the cinnamon (my housemates aren't a fan!) with ground ginger and vanilla and it was so so delicious, thank you!!

[@dinikasaxena]

Best video I've watched in a while

[@cherylfallon9856]

Omg. So yummy. Thanks guys. I made this for father's Day toasted for morning tea.. was a big hit. Added less agave for hubby (type 1 diabetic). Gonna work through all recipes. Mmmmm what's next. Xxx cheers from Cherry in Oz

[@thehappypear]

Brilliant work Cheryl! 😄😘🙌

[@LhasaLouise]

Just made this with my 3yo and it is perfect! Replaced agave with rice malt syrup and the sweetness was perfect for us. Has anyone tried this with chickpea flour instead?

[@andreamoboe]

Wow!! This looks awesome! I love banana bread! 😀😀 thanks guys and your helper 😀🍌🍌🍌

[@kaitlin5304]

Kids would love you guys

[@carollewis62]

Made this one today, sooooo delish! I halved the amount of agave syrup as I don't like too sweet. Struggling not to eat the whole lot in one go... Thanks boys ps also started to make my mother culture today, excited to see how that goes :)

[@thehappypear]

You've been busy! That's great to hear. Thanks for letting us know how you're getting on with the recipes. :D

[@sampayne7973]

+The Happy Pear stage 4 of the mother culture process and my God was she hungry this morning! Thanks for the tips.

[@theawesomegirl88]

You literally read my mind! Just got a loaf tin the other day and was looking for a healthy banana bread recipe! Thank you! ;)

[@thehappypear]

theawesomegirl88 Amazing. Let us know what you think of the recipe. :D

[@theawesomegirl88]

+The Happy Pear Thank you once again for an incredibly delicious recipe! I took a photo of my banana bread and tagged you on instagram @indree_st instagram.com/p/67aNxelGv9/?taken-by=indree_st

[@socrates470BCE]

[@kevinandmerrandaalbert2026]

This recipe is very delicious!

[@Pikselkalp]

Yummy! Thanks for the lovely recipe, gonna try it out today.

[@christinealdret1209]

Great recipe young girl . You have done the cake ✅✌🏻perfectly. 😍👍🏻

[@vadahughley1500]

OMGIZZLES!!!! Elsie is sooo adorable!!!!😄😄😄😍😍😍. The cake looks GREAT!!! Can you guys do a vegan carrot cake with cream cheese frosting (vegan version of course 😊😁)? Thanks again!!!😎😎😎

[@peterbrown9036]

Another great recipe. Just bought both of your books from Amazon. Look forward to more recipes

[@thehappypear]

Thanks so much Peter! Happy cooking 😄👍🙌

[@JustOneAsbesto]

I've sort of been looking for a vegan banana bread recipe for a while now, but all the ones I found had eggs and loads of added sugar. I hope I remember to try this next time I get a whole whackload of bananas on sale. Though I'd probably substitute blackstrap molasses for the agave syrup, and dates for the raisins.

[@thehappypear]

JustOneAsbesto Sounds good. Let us know how you get on when you try it out. :D

Great recipe and everything, but this is really nice to see you cook with children. They will understand later how important it is to cook fresh and organic foods (doesn't matter of veggie or not) at home and not to buy processed and packed foods at shops. Also thumbs up for Jamie's Food Revolution. ;)

[@thehappypear]

Bence Illés Cheers. We love how open our kids our to new foods and how they enjoy cooking from scratch. :D

[@andreeaQK]

I just discovered your channel and it`s brilliant! Was looking for a healthy banana bread recipe for a while :D

[@anukritipandey6206]

Hi 'The Happy Pear', Thank you for the recipe. The texture of the banana bread looks heavenly. Would replacing agave syrup with coconut sugar /brown sugar /maple syrup be recommended ? Thank you 😊 for helping out

[@lenakrupinski6303]

Going to try this out today !! Looks like a great recipe 💗 hope it turns out like yours 🙏 💜 Elsies so cute .🌹🍓🌹🍒🍌🍋🍊🍓

[@angelawood2474]

So cute!!!!

[@thehappypear]

Woo!😘

[@Missdaisyyyy]

I will try this tomorrow! You have the best vegan recipes :)

[@thehappypear]

Missdaisyyyy Thank you. Hope you enjoy the recipe. Let us know how you get on. :D

[@shanmukhaoo9]

Always inspiring and always awesome :) Thank you for sharing the happiness :)

[@joannahong6262]

Can i use wholemeal flour instead? How about for your pancake recipes? Can i use wholemeal flour instead of buckwheat? Anyway i really love your channel so much!! It inspires me to try new recipes all the time. I made the sweet potato falafels and they were SO GOOD. Thanks so much!

[@shannonmaeswartz5316]

Joanna Hong I think so :)

[@ashabas1053]

wholemeal makes for a more dense cake.

[@anukritipandey6206]

Hi Happy Pear, The texture of the banana bread looks just perfect. Most of the vegetarian /vegan banana bread recipes I have tried out, gave a bit too dense cake. Would love to try this recipe, could you please help with with the quantity of bananas in grams ? Thank you for sharing such amazing recipe ! Oh and a Happy 2020 !

[@ujalashujat]

I had doubts about it when I presented it to my parents since I thought it was not sweet enough/ some kind of flavor was missing. BUT they loved it! My dad went like, 'it's different but its good' Cheers :)

[@judymarkel8029]

You have the cutest kids

[@ignaciopavezcontador5126]

great recepie guys. is it possible to change the white flour for wholemeal one? or rice flour?

[@katmuls]

Elsie is so cute!!

[@majidaojbd512]

How nice 😃

[@thehappypear]

Glad you enjoyed 😄👍🙌

[@TheNeffen]

Lovely! Thanks guys!=D

[@nicolejarel5953]

I don’t have agave at home, but I do have turbinado sugar. How much sugar do you guys think should I use in substitute of the syrup?

[@joannahong6262]

Can I use chia eggs instead? It looks really good!!

[@backyardbreeze112]

Elsie did a great job! Definitely tagging this one since I have a banana tree in my backyard. I'm assuming bread soda is baking soda.??? And 200 grams of flour is..2 cups??

[@thehappypear]

Sure! Isn't she great 😄😘🙌

[@janek49]

According to my research, 100 grams of flour is 7/8 cup. www.jsward.com/cooking/conversion.shtml and www.tuscanrecipes.com/cooking-tips/flour-sugar.html

[@janeameliaw]

You should try soaking the rains in rum...😘

[@victoriarowan2890]

Jane Williams they don't drink?

[@aliceminchin3351]

Looks great! If I were to use maple syrup or honey instead of agave would I use the same quantity or change it slightly?

[@thehappypear]

Alice Minchin The only change would be that delicious maple flavour. :D

[@aliceminchin3351]

+The Happy Pear Looking forward to trying it! Also I attended a vegan cooking class last week and learnt of the coolest egg substitute... the liquid from a can of chickpeas! They called it aquafaba have you guys heard of this?

[@thehappypear]

Yes we have it's great. We use it to make meringues. :D

[@Masa-pe6oe]

Hi guys thanks for your video, how many eggs i should use instead of flax eggs?

[@aadzik77]

+Mahsa Torknejad I used 1 :) They said it in the video as well :)

[@Lis_aaaaa]

I'm going to make this version toady! :) ...may I request a vegan walnut & coffee bread recipe for the future, please (don't ask ya don't get and all that) ..would be ace. Also I started my own apple cider vinegar 3 days ago, good times. Thanks guys! blessings, Lisa :)

[@thehappypear]

Sure we can see what sort of recipe we can get together. Amazing!! Let us know how your acv is getting along. :D

[@fcdl5688]

How much normal sugar should I put to replace agave if I don't have agave available?

[@juliagli1973]

Can I make this with wholegrain spelt flour?

[@eirikpersonskates]

So epic!!

[@thehappypear]

Absolutely! 😘😄👍

[@Tepper1992]

Can you use almond flour instead of the white flour too?

[@aramatoulayedabo3438]

Finally I found a vegan recipe that doesn't have eggs or processed sugar. I want to substitute the agave for maple syrup is that ok? Thanks guys

[@swingking338]

Hey guys, keep up the great cooking. Question, what flour could you use to make this gluten free?

[@thehappypear]

swinking Buckwheat is a great option. We use it a lot in our pancakes. :D

[@martinebeck8330]

Hello !! super recette , mais la température ?? je n'ai pas compris. Merci pour la réponse .

[@thehappypear]

150 degrees Celsius! 👍🙌😄

[@martinebeck8330]

Oh thank you very much from France.

[@lisabjorklund131]

That looks absolutly delicious! What flower woud you use if you want inte wheat free? Can chia seed eggs be an alternative? 🍌🐒

[@NatashaToporova]

Can I use another flour for that banana bread? maybe oats lour or smth like that?

[@freakdancing4144]

Can you use sugar instead of agave?

[@lorenacontreras5368]

Is this 150 degrees Fahrenheit?

[@TheShuiligans]

Ladds mentals we only made this yesterday first time making in newbies to the whole vlogging baking series so its mental ye did the aswell!! Love yer bones lads xxx

[@thehappypear]

The Shuiligans Ah nice one! It must be banana bread season. :D

[@TheShuiligans]

Sure isn't summer..... #comfortfood

[@lisabjorklund131]

That looks absolutly delicious! What flower woud you use if you want inte wheat free? Can chia seed eggs be an alternative? 🍌 🐒

[@Nadine16716]

can we substitute flour with another type of flour?

[@charlayib]

Can you guys please put the conversions for both the temperature from Celsius to farenheit and grams to cups in the description PLEASE !!! It takes me longer to find all the right amounts than it does to cook. :/

[@mi2maui]

What is BREAD SODA???? Never heard of it ... Thanks, got the ripe bananas to make this tomorrow!! Cute cute video!!

[@thehappypear]

I probably meant baking soda, it's a rising agent. :D

[@mai-linb.6458]

Looks yummy!! My bananas got really spotty today so no excuse not to make the bread right?!

[@thehappypear]

Mai-Lin B. Exactly. :D They're so much nicer and sweeter at that stage. :D

[@hedynoble7712]

I just subscribed. Love you video''s. Where are you from?

[@DiorTheBanamelon]

they're from ireland

[@MrAcook1985]

By tablespoon do u mean desert spoon?

[@nandinik189]

She is so cute ☺️☺️☺️☺️

[@thehappypear]

Isn't she! 😄💚

[@perlyutter3784]

Can I use GF flour???? Answer please!!?

[@patrycja1955]

I'm a vegan and I love being a vegan

[@perlyutter3784]

Can you use gluten free flour?

[@carmenbrisebois1151]

Perfect : )

[@dewmorning1448]

Good job vegan...👍👍

[@KathBorup]

Hi Guys I'm a bit confused about the amount of flax/water. In the video you say its 1 tbsp ground flax and 3 tbsp of water, but in the written recipe it's double that amount...Not sure how much to add. 2 flax eggs or 1? Thanks

[@ujalashujat]

Same query. What did you end up doing

[@KathBorup]

Hi... It was so long ago that I can't remember what I did but let's just say the banana bread was inedible. I have experience making regular muffins but this recipe did not work for me at all 👎

[@ujalashujat]

+Kath Borup I wish you had replied earlier. I just made it and will not be making it again. haha. I have tried a lot of banana bread recipes and by far donal skehan's is the best

[@KathBorup]

+Ujala Shujat glad I'm not the only one that experienced this. Thanks for the recommendation! I'll try his recipe 😊

[@KathBorup]

+Ujala Shujat btw sorry I hadn't replied earlier and that we both had to learn the hard way that vegan banana bread is not good

[@jans.9678]

can i use something esle than oil ? :D for a lower fat version:)

[@LingLingW]

I use unsweetened applesauce to substitute parts of oil/Butter in a recipe. try substituting 1/3-1/2 first. it will change the consistency slightly. :)

[@TheBathroomGirl]

what is bread soda!? bicarb soda?

[@Try2K3tchup]

TheBathroomGirl baking soda

[@mercyauza8167]

Where can I buy your book from?

[@jmk1962]

Amazon

[@neilsonsarify]

could you use zucchini or something in place of the banana, and would you use the same amount?

[@thehappypear]

BicycleSarah You could use zucchini for sure. i'm not sure how much to use though. :/ If you figure it out we'd love to know how you get on. :D

[@sugchandru]

can i sustitute spelt for quinoa flour?

[@thehappypear]

+Suganthi Chandru You can. Each flour will give a slightly different result though. Let us know how yours turns out. :D

[@shifrabaila6673]

In the list of ingredients you note 2 tablespoons of ground flax seeds & 6 tablespoons of water, but in the video you use half of that - which is correct

[@lisahshort]

Would this work with buckwheat to make it gf?

[@daverichards2141]

Teach Elsie how to cook and eat healthy and then when she grows up she won't look like a lot of the women at my local WalMart! It's a shame. She's a little sweetheart! Well done lads!

[@thehappypear]

Elsie's a fantastic cook!!! 😘😋

[@alexwhitec]

give me a piece! :P

[@suruchidhawan7135]

My cake didn't come out brown and rich like yours It was blonde Please could you tell me what went wrong

[@millie7642]

is your book not fully vegan?

[@thehappypear]

Our first book is a mixture if vegan recipes form us and vegetarian recipes from other chefs, our second book is about 90% vegan and our next book will be 100% vegan!!! 😄👍🙌

[@mercyauza8167]

The Happy Pear Where can I buy from?

[@nikos-giorgos]

Elsie is really really cute!Recipe was great except for the walnuts (just my opinion) which i only like raw and never on sweets, desserts etc...
