Vegan Oat Flour Bread & Banana Bread

Have a few extra bananas in your fruit bowl? Don’t toss them in the trash when they start getting brown spots. Make this naturally sweetened and moist banana and oat bread with walnuts.

When you’ve got lemons, make a lemon loaf with a sweet silky citrus glaze. This dainty loaf is excellent for breakfast or afternoon tea. I like lemon loaf with a little spread of vegan cream cheese on it.

Oatmeal banana bread is so rich and sweet, yet it has no processed sugar. Full-fat coconut milk adds richness, while bananas, chocolate chips, and pure maple syrup sweeten the bread. What a decadent way to start your day.

I can’t live without blueberries, whether in season or from a bag in my freezer. If you are anything like I am, you love fluffy pancakes with colorful and sweet berries in every bite.

Vegan Oat Flour Muffins & Donuts
12. Oat Flour Muffins
Remember when oat bran muffins were all the rage for getting fiber into your diet? Even the best efforts sometimes yielded muffins that were somewhat heavy. Oat flour is the best way to make muffins with soluble fiber that are lighter than those with bran.
13. Blueberry Peanut Butter Muffins
Peanut butter and blueberries are a personal favorite combination that I think you will love as much as I do. You can either slather some toast with peanut butter, layer on some berries, and have a sandwich. Or, just make these incredible vegan muffins with nut butter and berries in the batter.

Do you get a little excited around Halloween when you can buy peanut butter cups for the trick-or-treaters? Of course, you will eat some! You can have chocolate peanut butter donuts any time of year that taste like candy but are so much better – for real.

Vegan Oat Flour Cakes & Brownies
19. Oat Flour Chocolate Cake
Chocolate cake is appropriate for any celebration. I love that this is a triple-layer cake with buttercream frosting between the layers and all over the top and sides. It is truly indulgent and a bit of a show-stopper.
20. Vanilla Oat Flour Cake
Vanilla oat flour cake is off the rails. It is basically made with overnight oats soaked in vegan yogurt, which I make a couple of times a week and love the creamy texture of. I never thought to bake with that moist and silky goodness. The cake is abundantly frosted with chocolate whipped cream.
21. Pear Cake
Get to your local orchard in early fall when pears are hitting their peak for harvesting. You need fresh, ripe fruit for this understated cake. It is unassuming in appearance, yet fruit and spice-forward in flavor.
22. Fudgy Oat Flour Brownies
What makes these oat flour brownies so fudgy is the creamy almond butter that is added to the 6-ingredient batter. Of course, the 2 types of chocolate are keys to the richness.

I am not kidding you when I say these cookies have only 3 ingredients! You really have no excuse for not making cookies from scratch when they are this easy and ready to eat in about 20 minutes.

27. Cinnamon Oat Cookies
I’m not sure you can have oatmeal without cinnamon. Am I right? Oatmeal cookies need cinnamon too. But these get really spicy (not hot) with nutmeg added to the mix.
28. Peanut Butter and Jelly Cookies
Brilliant! Peanut butter and jelly cookies are just that. These healthy treats have fruit jelly, fresh berries, and chunky peanut butter. They are sweet and toothsome.
29. Anzac Biscuits
If you aren’t familiar, Anzac biscuits are thin oat flour sweet cookies popular down under. Anzac is an acronym for Australia New Zealand Army Corps because wives made the biscuits for their husbands serving on the front lines. This recipe is a healthy and delicious version.

It doesn’t have to be Valentine’s Day to treat your sweetheart to confections. This cinnamon roll recipe is perfect for two and is a loving way to start your weekend off.

FAQ
Oat flour can be used in a variety of recipes including pancakes, waffles, homemade granola bars, energy bites, or as a crumble topping for fruit crips and muffins. It’s best used blended with other flours, in no-bake recipes, and dense baked goods since it is not as light and fluffy as other types of flour.
You can use oat flour instead of all-purpose flour in some recipes, but the end result may not be the same since it does not contain the same properties or gluten like all-purpose flour. Try mixing it in with all-purpose flour or experimenting with different blends and leavening agents.
Yes, oat flour is healthy on its own because it is made from 100% blended whole grain oats. However, if it is used in cake, cookie, and other pastry recipes, the recipe it’s used in may not be healthy if it contains lots of sugar or oils. The whole grain taste and texture of oat flour means it’s most likely to be used in healthier baked goods.
Oat flour will rise somewhat with baking powder, but not as well as all-purpose or other types of baking flour. You may need to add extra baking powder to your recipe or try a different leavening agent like baking soda and vinegar. Generally, oat flour is best used in recipes that don’t need to rise, or need a dense and chewy texture.
If you are measuring your flour by weight, you can swap all-purpose flour for the same amount of oat flour. If you are measuring by volume, you’ll need to use a bit more oat flour than all-purpose flour because the all-purpose flour will rise more. You’ll need approximately 1 ⅓ cups oat flour to replace 1 cup all-purpose flour.
