Instructions
 

Directions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (176°C). Prepare a 9x5 inch loaf pan by lining it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mash the overripe bananas until smooth and creamy.
  • Add the vanilla extract, egg (or chia egg), oil, cane sugar, brown sugar, maple syrup, baking powder, sea salt, and cinnamon to the mashed bananas. Whisk everything together until well combined.
  • Stir in the almond milk to the mixture, creating a smooth batter.
  • Gently fold in the almond meal, gluten-free flour blend, and gluten-free rolled oats until just mixed.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  • Place the pan in the oven and bake for 60-75 minutes, until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Remove the loaf from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan.

Notes

Optional: Top with a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of nuts for added richness.
