Egg Free/Vegan Banana Bars

Egg Free Banana Bars!

These turned out very well. VERY yummy! However, you know how if you over mix batter.. sometimes the product becomes a bit rubbery? I think I overmixed a bit. But they are still very good. However, they pretty much just taste like banana bread. Which is okay I guess. Banana Bread is amazing. But maybe for the consistency of a bar, they could be more dry and cake or cookie like in texture. I used turbinado sugar instead or refined sugar and some nice over ripe bananas! MMmmmmMMMmmMm! And I just had to add chocolate on top.

Egg Free Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

So I've been craving banana bread and wanting to make banana bread for several weeks now, but kept putting it off. I finally made some with my over ripe bananas. I made some normal banana bread with egg, and an alternative loaf that was eggless. The 3 bananas in the recipe took the consistency of the egg and helped bind everything together, along with a half cup of applesauce. With the 3 bananas, this bread really didn't even need any egg. A bit of baking soda helped the bread leaven a little and add tenderness. This banana bread actually turned out quite well and I've been eating it away. I think I will try altering the recipe a bit though to make it even better! It was very moist, maybe a bit too moist... and possible a bit of baking powder would help give a better consistency and make it rise to a better visually pleasing loaf. I could mess around with a few other ingredients.. but it was the perfect flavor really.

Yummy yummy baked good that even I can eat! Great treat for breakfast or snack ... also fulfilling my constant craving for chocolate. And even a bit healthy? Soooo good! I think I will take some for a snack at work this week.
