Bread Machine Recipe: Banana Bread (Dairy Free)

My husband has a milk allergy, so does Ryan, my 5 year old, and I’m lactose intolerant, sooooooo I’m always trying to spin recipes to make them as dairy free as possible. We love dairy, so sometimes we endure but when I can substitute milk for soy or rice I do. These are the recipes that I have and turn out awesome, even without milk.

Ingredients:

1 1/4 cups sugar

1/2 cup butter (softened)

2 eggs

3 Bananas (put as many as you want ,depending on how you like your bread to taste)

1/2 cup SOY MILK (normally you would use buttermilk)

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 1/2 cups flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

I used my bread machine (1st, time!) to make this, so I dumped all the ingredients in, it mixed it up and then started baking on the Quick Bread setting, depending on the machine you can use a cake setting, or set the timer for an allotted time (usually 1 hour). Took a little longer to bake (about an hour and half), since this was my first time experimenting with the bread machine, it was a large loaf that needed longer to cook through and I was unsure of all the settings but the bread came out delicious and worked well with the soy substitute. The bread was gone in a day!

If you want to make this recipe in the regular old oven, mix the ingredients together, pour into 2 loaf pans, put in the oven and 350 degrees and bake for 1 hour.
