Peach Brown Sugar Banana Bread {vegan}

Made with ample bananas, whole wheat flour, brown sugar & a flax egg, this vegan banana bread recipe is a great way to use up a few ripe peaches that you have on hand! 

Summertime is my favorite time for peak season produce – especially the fruit. From watermelon and peaches to strawberries and blueberries, I adore summer fruit!

Sometimes I feel like my peaches feel not quite ripe enough for forever, and then all of a sudden they’re soft and super sweet smelling.. and about a day away from being overripe! These are the perfect instances to bake with peaches.

In fact, this recipe was born out of me having a couple of ripe peaches on hand. I realized that on my long list of recipe ideas to test, peach banana bread had been on the list since last summer. A few banana bread experiments later, and today’s recipe was born!

Vegan Peach Brown Sugar Banana Bread

I use brown sugar to sweeten this banana bread because the combo of peaches + brown sugar reminds me of a summer pie… therefore, this recipe is like a cross between banana bread and peach pie. Yum!

Moist, banana-packed, just sweet enough & with a surprise of diced peaches… this vegan banana bread is a goodie that I hope you bake up yourself! If you give it a try, I’d love for you to leave a comment letting me know how you liked it.
