When you want a delicious treat without the sugar, without the gluten bloat AND without the grains, this is it!
Unrefined sugar like coconut sugar or honey is optional here if you need it sweeter. I find if the bananas are nice and over ripe, AKA with black marks, then the banana bread will be sweet enough.
Perfect with a cuppa or in a lunch box.
Have a play and change the fruit around or add choc chips, walnuts or raisins to add a lil sum’n sum’n. If adding choc chips, Pana are great and will keep the bread sugar free.
I’ve even ran out of almond meal and made it half half with almond & coconut flour. The coco flour is much lighter and makes it less dense. If you want a fluffier bread try that. I like mine nice and dense with the almond flour.
Being more nutrient dense, a small slice is nice & filling. Yumm!
