Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your baking dish or line it with parchment paper. 🍽️
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas using a fork until smooth.
Add melted coconut oil, brown sugar, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Mix well until combined. 🍌
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually fold into the wet ingredients until just combined.
In a separate bowl, prepare the cinnamon crumble by combining oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and softened coconut oil. Mix until crumbly.
Pour the banana bread batter into the baking dish, and sprinkle the cinnamon crumble topping evenly over the top.
