Eggless Banana Bread with Aquafaba

If you are a regular reader, you must be familiar with aquafaba. To the readers who are new to my blog, here is an introduction to home made aquafaba, eggless meringue kisses and eggless Italian Meringue Butter cream.(click on names for recipe). After these recipes, I experimented with a banana bread. Though I have done eggless banana bread previously with milk and vinegar as egg substitutes, this is the first time I am trying with aquafaba. The result was soft and moist delicious banana bread.

The original recipe had two eggs in it and I substituted it with 2 tbs of aquafaba. Usually 3 tbs of aquafaba is used in recipes instead of an egg, but that day I somehow miscalculated it and added two tbs. Though I was happy with the result, I wanted to make sure that the miscalculation didn’t cost any thing. So I made the bread again and this time with 6 tbs of aquafaba substituting two eggs. But the bread was not at all good. It was so mushy and was not edible at all. So two tbs of aquafaba worked great whereas 6 tbs failed. The bread was so yumm and we had a lovely treat that day.
