You may remember my recipe for gluten free banana bread with butternut squash. It’s one of my favorites of all time. Yes, all time. But I couldn’t help but strip it down to the absolute essentials and take it back to classic banana bread land. Friends, behold: 1-Bowl Gluten-Free Banana Bread. The ingredients for this scrumptious, hearty bread begin with three overripe bananas. Then come essentials you likely already have on hand, such as eggs (or chia/flax eggs), vanilla and coconut oil. To sweeten things up a bit more I relied on a mix of honey, cane and brown sugar for a variance of flavor and texture. Then comes the gluten-free goodness: a mix of gluten free oats, almond meal and my favorite gluten-free flour blend (or sub other gluten-free blends with varied results). Check out our Guide to Gluten-Free Flours for more guidance! And of course, if you’re not gluten free just sub whole wheat pastry or all purpose for the blend. About 1 hour in the oven and this baby is ready for the taking. I could hardly wait to slice in, but patience is key here. You need to wait a good hour before cutting into this baby, else it will crumble and fall apart. That’s what you don’t want. This is what you do want. A hearty loaf that holds its shape and converts even the most suspicious of eaters into gluten-free banana bread lovers. Hubba hubba. This bread is: HeartyPerfectly moistLoaded with banana flavorJust sweet enoughSpotted with oats and almond mealSlightly nuttyIncredibly satisfying& Altogether dreamy Trust me, you’re gonna love this bread.
