"Omg this can't be vegan" Banana Bread
I found this recipe when I was working with a community kitchen which was also a little vegan paradise for students. This bread will convert non-vegans in one mouthful. I did tweak it to decrease the amount of sugar, feel free to add a little more if your bananas are a little green. Tip 1 : if you're planning a banana bread but your bananas are not ripe yet, pop them in a paper bag for 2-3 days and they will be ready. Tip 2 : double the quantities and freeze the breads, they keep for a good 2-3 months.

- 5
add the dry stuff in little by little, alternating with your crushed bananas.

grease the pans very lightly, add the sesame seeds as coating by putting a generous handful and then shaking it around so it goes on the bottom and the edges.

Now if you're using a square pan, the breads will cook faster, about 40-45 minutes

if you have a loaf pan, you'll want to put it up to 50 minutes to an hour.
