Description
Make this naturally moist and tender gluten free banana bread using almond flour. It is a simple, reliable recipe perfect for family snacks or breakfast.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil or extra-virgin olive oil or high-quality vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 2 1/2 medium or 2 large bananas)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 2 1/2 cups (230 grams) almond flour, spooned and leveled
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease your loaf pan base and sides with cooking oil spray or butter, and flour it with almond flour.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the oil and honey. Whisk until blended. Add the eggs, and whisk until the mixture is thoroughly combined.
- Add the mashed bananas, baking powder, vanilla, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt, and whisk to combine.
- Add the almond flour. Switch to a large spoon or spatula, and stir until the flour is fully incorporated into the batter. Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan.
- Bake for 55 to 65 minutes, until the center of the loaf is springy to the touch and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Place the pan on a cooling rack to cool for at least 30 minutes.
- Use a butter knife to loosen the edges of the bread from the pan, then carefully tip it over to release. Slice and serve.
Notes
- If you want to add up to 1 cup blueberries, lightly flour them in almond flour first. Your bread may need up to 1 hour 10 minutes in the oven with this addition.
- You can add 1/2 cup mix-ins like chopped walnuts, pecans, or chocolate chips without changing the baking time.
- Store this bread at room temperature for a couple of days, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze it sliced for several months.
