Gluten-Free Banana Bread

May 24, 2017 By Veronique

Gluten-free banana bread

This gluten-free banana bread is a deliciously moist and healthier alternative to regular banana bread. It is made of buckwheat flour and almond flour, which means that this bread is technically grain-free. Contrary to popular belief, buckwheat does not contain wheat. It is actually a seed from a fruit in the same family as rhubarb and sorrel. I really love to use buckwheat since it has a very “grain-like” texture and is great to bake with. This gluten-free banana bread comes together in minutes and only requires a large bowl and a whisk.

Now let’s get to baking:

In a large bowl mash the bananas very well until they resemble a purée. Add in the eggs, maple syrup, vanilla and coconut oil. Whisk until well combined.

Sometimes I get a curious nose that creeps into my shots since I take my pictures on a low table. Let’s play a lil game of where’s Waldo, or should I say where’s Max.

Let cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack, let cool and enjoy.

    Véronique,

    Wow…my son and I really enjoyed this banana bread as a Sunday afternoon snack. Since I started my wheat belly diet one and a half year ago, I’ve been disappointed with many “wheat like” recipes. But your banana bread has the same awesome taste, texture and density as the original wheat based banana bread I used to enjoy a couple of years ago. Job well done on getting a home run with this recipe.
