Especially during the week, time is often scarce in the morning. With a juicy, vegan banana bread from the cup, you start the day well-fed. The recipe.
A balanced breakfast is the basis for an eventful day. Just omit “the most important meal of the day”? Too many unthinkable.

A quick banana bread from the cup is the ideal way to start the day well and above all tasty despite the lack of time.
Banana bread is always good – whether it is for breakfast, dessert or just in between. The sweet pastry tastes wonderfully juicy and sweet and is ideal for processing overripe bananas. The rule here is: the more ripe the fruit, the better. Because the more fructose the banana contains, the sweeter the cup cake tastes in the end. You do not need eggs for the banana bread. It’s vegan. The ripe banana makes it airy and juicy.
Preparation in less than five minutes
The preparation could not be easier: mash the ripe banana to a pulp and mix it with flour, oatmeal, chopped nuts, baking powder, cinnamon, coconut oil and caramel syrup to form a homogeneous dough. As an alternative to caramel syrup, you can also use agave syrup, coconut flower syrup or honey. The mug cake goes into the microwave for a total of two minutes. Be sure to pause the cooking time every 30 seconds – this will prevent the batter from rising over the edge of the cup and overflowing.
When baking, the incomparably delicious aroma of banana bread spreads throughout the apartment – and before you know it, the quick cake is ready and can be decorated with fresh banana slices and syrup or nut butter of your choice.
