Grain-Free Banana Bread

 
Picture
I decided to make a grain-free Banana bread tonight to get rid of some bananas turned mush.

I am going to retool this recipe to be vegan and include some nutritional boosts, but for now here is the recipe as I made it tonight.  Please note that I did not bake in a bread pan, I actually baked it in a square, I guess you would call it brownie pan.  This makes 8 servings. 

Ingredients:
  • cooking spray (I use avocado oil in a non-aerosol spray can)
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (I prefer Raw ACV, such as Braggs)
  • 3 bananas, mashed
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted (Unrefined!)
  • 1/4 cup honey  (raw preferred, local honey is best especially for those with allergies)
  •  1 teaspoon vanilla extract (Don't skimp here!)
  • 3 cups almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (I really enjoy Vietnamese cinnamon, as it is highly flavored due to the higher oil content)
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (I use pink Himilayan sea salt)
  • OPTIONAL Grain-free granola to top (I topped half of the recipe with this as shown in the picture)
 
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Prepare a bread pan with cooking spray.
  2. Mix eggs and vinegar together in a bowl; add bananas, coconut oil, honey, and vanilla extract and stir until blended.
  3. Sift flour, cinnamon, baking powder, nutmeg and salt together in a large bowl; stir into banana mixture until well blended. Pour batter into prepared bread / brownie pan.
  4. OPTIONAL - cover with grain-free granola
  5. Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

I hope that you enjoy this filling dish! This recipe makes for a great breakfast or post-workout refuel. Packed with over 19g of protein and 16.6g of healthy fat per 1 serving, this is a wonderul way to increase your protein intake and crush your cravings!


In health,
