Preheat oven to 350° F.
Lightly oil an 8x8-inch baking dish, dusting lightly with flour, shaking out the excess.
Blend the soy milk, oil, maple syrup, bananas and vanilla in a blender until smooth.
In a large bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt until well combined. Add the banana mixture and combine, using as few strokes as possible to avoid overmixing. Fold in the walnuts.
Scrape into the baking dish and smooth the top. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes.
