  • Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes to 1 hour 15 minutes
  • Yield: 8 slices

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped nuts or dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan with coconut oil or non-stick spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Add the eggs, honey or maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, and sea salt. Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Fold in nuts or chocolate chips if desired.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  5. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For extra moisture, add a splash of almond milk if the batter seems too thick.
  • Use finely chopped nuts or chocolate chips for better incorporation.
  • Leftover banana bread can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerated for up to a week.
