My newborn gluten-free banana bread just hit a home run!
Perfect for breakfast: minimally and naturally sweetened; it relies on the natural sweetness of the bananas.
I looked around me in my daughter’s kitchen, after the children asked me to make a banana treat. I was intent on making a very high fiber bread that would promote… regularity (a perennial quest, for many of us), even while it tastes fantastic.
My gluten-free banana bread may well be the answer to your lower carb prayers!
My daughter, and indeed, all my children, have a super healthy pantry, just as I do, so finding what I need to make the healthiest treats is no trouble ever.
I just threw all my ingredients in a bowl, mixed, poured, baked and prayed.
It’s the best! It is so nutritious that you can very easily make it a significant part of your meal: a nice slice of my gluten-free banana bread with a smear of butter, cream cheese or nut butter makes a terrific breakfast. And with a big salad or soup, it will make the perfect meal.
Both the oats and the flax give the gluten-free banana bread its hearty flavor and texture. Oat is the dream grain, in every respect. Flax is a nutritional powerhouse, with a mild and unobtrusive flavor, and very inexpensive. And the optional touch of cocoa gives it its deep dark color and added zing.
