Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium to large ripe bananas
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (or substitute pure maple syrup, coconut sugar, or your favorite sugar-free sweetener)
  • 2 large eggs (or flax eggs for a vegan option)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups superfine blanched almond flour

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Spray a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with gluten-free cooking spray or lightly grease it.

  2. Mash the Bananas

    Place the ripe bananas into a large mixing bowl and mash until mostly smooth.

  3. Add the Dry Seasonings

    Mix in the baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

  4. Add the Wet Ingredients

    Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and granulated sugar (or your preferred sweetener). Stir until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated.

  5. Fold in the Almond Flour

    Add the superfine blanched almond flour and mix until no dry flour remains. The batter will be thick.

  6. Fill the Pan

    Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top evenly.

  7. Bake

    Bake on the center rack for about 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
    Since every oven bakes differently, begin checking for doneness around the 45-minute mark.

  8. Cool

    Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for several minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
