The Perfect Gluten-Free Banana Bread Recipe

If you're looking for a delicious, moist, and gluten-free banana bread recipe, look no further! This recipe is not only easy to make, but it is also a great way to use up overripe bananas that would otherwise go to waste. Plus, with a few simple ingredient substitutions, this recipe can easily be made vegan as well.

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups gluten-free flour (I used Bob's Red Mill 1-to-1 Baking Flour)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • 2 eggs (replace with 2 flax eggs for a vegan version)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup dairy-free milk (I used almond milk)
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a separate large bowl, beat together the mashed bananas, coconut sugar, coconut oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and dairy-free milk.
  4. Slowly add in the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until well combined. Fold in the chopped walnuts if desired.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing it and placing it on a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Slice, serve, and enjoy this delicious gluten-free banana bread!

This recipe is great for any occasion - whether you want a quick and tasty brunch option, a healthy snack, or a sweet treat for guests. It is also a great option for those with dietary restrictions or allergies, as it is both gluten-free and can easily be made vegan. Plus, the addition of coconut sugar and coconut oil add a subtle tropical flavor and make this bread a bit healthier than traditional banana bread recipes.
