Vegan Banana Bread with Macadamia Nuts

This is one of my favorite indulgences. I made this particular loaf vegan by substituting one egg for 1 tbs ground flaxseed dissolved into 3 tbs hot water. This can be done in almost any baking recipe to make it vegan. I also used vegan butter and whole wheat flour to make it a little more healthful.

Ingredients:
3 ripened bananas
1/2 cup vegan butter melted (Earth Balance makes a great vegan butter)
1 cup sugar
1 tbs ground flaxseed dissolved into 3 tbs of hot water
2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1 pinch of salt
1 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup white flour
1/4 cup macadamia nut chopped

In a mixer combine bananas, butter, sugar and flaxseed and mix together. Then add vanilla, baking soda, salt and flour. Mix together until all ingredients have married together. Add most of the chopped macadamia nuts (saving a little for topping the bread). Mix together and pour into a greased pan. Sprinkle remaining macadamia nuts on top and bake at 350 for 1 hour.
