This pumpkin banana bread is thick, fluffy, and perfectly moist. It's dairy-free, egg-free, and vegan-friendly!
This fall-inspired treat is perfect for a light breakfast or slightly sweet and savory snack. I love adding pepitas to the top of my loaf before baking for a subtle crunch. Yum!
This homemade vegan pumpkin banana loaf is already in my banana baking routine along with baked banana bread donuts, banana chocolate chip muffins, and of course the classic, banana nut bread.
Pumpkin Banana Bread Recipe
This easy seasonal loaf comes together with 10 ingredients. Simply combine the ingredients, pour into a bread pan, and bake! Here's what you'll need:
- Flour
- Baking powder
- Baking soda
- Pumpkin pie spice
- Salt
- Ripe bananas
- Pumpkin puree
- Brown sugar
- Refined coconut oil
- Dairy-free milk
Why use refined coconut oil?
Refined coconut oil has a neutral taste. So no coconut taste, smell, or aroma! It's made from the coconut meat that's filtered and dried before being pressed into oil.
Using melted coconut oil makes this bread soft and fluffy.
What type of dairy-free milk?
Use what you have on hand! I would suggest almond, soy, or oat milk.

The recipe was delicious. I used leftover store bought pumpkin pie rather than the pumpkin puree and omitted the pumpkin spice. It turned out great but next time I will add the pumpkin spice back in. Also, the bread cooked in half the time, possibly because I used the pumpkin pie rather than puree.

can I use gluten free flour?

Hi Roz! I would suggest using a gluten free 1-to-1 flour.
