Banana Bread

Active Time: 15 minutes / Cook Time: 40-50 minutes / Total Time: 55-65 minutes

Makes 8-10 servings

Ingredients:

• 1 ½ cups almond flour
• ½ cup coconut flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon cinnamon
• ¾ teaspoon baking powder
• ¾ teaspoon sea salt
• 1/3 cup butter, melted
• 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 ½ tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 2 cups packed mashed banana (about 6 ripe bananas)
• 2/3 cup dark chocolate chips, optional (we love Lily’s no sugar added brand)

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350° F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
2. Combine dry ingredients in one bowl and mix well.
3. Combine wet ingredients in another bowl and mix well.
4. Pour wet ingredients plus chocolate chips if using into dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
5. Pour into prepared loaf pan and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top browns too quickly, cover with tin foil and continue to bake.
6. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
7. Wrap well and store in the fridge until needed.
8. To serve, enjoy 1 slice per person straight from the fridge or warmed up (15 seconds in the microwave, or 2-3 minutes in a 400 degrees F oven).
