We love a good banana loaf!

Original recipe by: Minimalist Baker

You’ll need

• 3 medium-to-very ripe bananas

• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

• 1 batch of chia ‘egg’ (1 Tbsp chia seeds+2 Tbsp water)

• 3 Tbsp melted coconut oil

• 1/2 cup coconut sugar

• 2-3 Tbsp honey (more or less depending on the desired level of sweetness)

• 3 ½ tsp baking powder

• 1/4 tsp Himalayan salt

• 1 tsp cinnamon powder

• 3/4 cup almond or dairy-free milk

• 1 ¼ cups almond flour (blended almonds)

• 2 ½ cups (more if too wet) oat flour (blended oats)

Method

1. Pre-heat oven to 180°C

2. In a mixing bowl prep flax egg and allow to sit for 5 min; once gelled add bananas, mash and mix in with chia ‘egg’

3. Add the rest of the ingredients (not flours) and mix well

4. Once combined mix in the almond and oat flours

5. Pour mixture into a medium sized, greased (with oil or spray) loaf tin

6. Allow to bake until *toothpick comes out clean

7. Enjoy with roasted nuts, jam or as is

*Toothpick trick: stick a toothpick into a baking dish (bread/ cake/ muffins etc.), remove and if the toothpick comes out clean, your dish is baked through.
