Banana bread is a sneaky treat. It sounds healthy, but it often has a lot of sugar and fat. This version is just as yummy and is a bit friendlier for your waistline. This recipe includes healthy coconut oil and coconut sugar. You can have a very generous serving of this and slice it into 8 slices, but we prefer to make it last and cut it into slivers.
Ingredients
- 3 large, ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/4 cup melted extra virgin coconut oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup almond flower
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 3 tbsp coconut sugar
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F
- Coat a bread pan with cooking spray, set aside
- Combine mashed bananas, oil, egg, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl, mix well to combine
- Combine almond flour, flour baking powder, sugar, and salt in a separate mixing bowl, stir to combine
- Add flour mixture to banana mixture, slowly until a smooth batter forms
- Pour and spread batter into bread pan
- Bake for 35-45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean
- Cool for 5 minutes in pan
- Remove loaf from pan and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack
My favorite way to enjoy this banana bread is for breakfast with a tbsp of natural peanut butter and my cup of coffee. Give it a try!
