Directions
  1. Whisk together almond milk and apple cider vinegar in a bowl, allowing it to sit for 5-10 minutes until it curdles.
  2. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a loaf pan with vegan butter and line it with parchment paper.
  3. Mash ripe bananas until smooth, then mix in melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and made buttermilk.
  4. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a separate bowl.
  5. Fold the dry mixture into wet ingredients gently. Avoid over-mixing.
  6. Fold in half of the chocolate chips, pour into the loaf pan, and sprinkle the other half on top.
  7. Bake for 55-60 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  8. Let the loaf cool in the pan for 25-30 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
