I AM HEALTHY BANANA BREAD

 

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1/2 cup coconut oil – measured as a solid, but melt before mixing
  • 2/3 cup organic 100% maple syrup
  • 2 organic eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups ripened bananas – I use 4 medium bananas (this may come out to about 1 3/4 cup, but I find that it makes the bread moister)
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1 tsp Himalayan ground sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/3 cup organic shredded coconut

 

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350ºF.

2. In a bowl, combine melted coconut oil and 100% maple syrup.

3. Add the eggs separately and then add the bananas, mix well.

4. In a separate bowl, combine all dry ingredients (almond flour, coconut flour, sea salt, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and shredded coconut) and stir to evenly mix.

5. Once the dry ingredients are mixed well, add the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Stir the batter to ensure there are no dry ingredients left and the mixture resembles a dough-like texture.

6. Generously grease and flour a loaf pan using coconut oil and brown rice flour.

7. If you're using a small loaf pan, bake for 30 minutes. If you're using a large loaf pan, bake for 50-60 minutes.
