Gluten Free Banana Bread

I've found a delicious gluten free recipe for banana bread! My ten month old loves this for breakfast or just for a snack. It's the perfect texture for him. Thanks to Julia at http://www.fatgirltrappedinaskinnybody.com

Paleo Banana Bread

Ingredients

• 3 very ripe bananas (about 1 ½ cups) mashed
• 3 eggs
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp almond extract (optional, but we love it!)
• 1 tablespoon honey (agave or maple would work too)
• ¼ cup coconut oil, melted
• 2 cups almond meal (I get mine at Trader Joe’s)
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a loaf pan.

Add the bananas, eggs, vanilla, honey and coconut oil in a food processor and pulse until the ingredients are combined.

Add in almond flour, salt and baking soda and pulse a few times.

Dump batter into a greased loaf pan.

*I used a 4×8 inch pan. The larger the pan, the flatter the loaf will be, so use a smaller loaf pan to add height to your bread.

Bake for 55-65 minutes, until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Remove from oven and allow to cool in the pan.

Remove from the pan, slice and serve.

Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

I used a metal loaf pan and cooked mine for 45 minutes. Just keep checking it with a toothpick every few minutes after the 40 minute mark so it doesn't get too done.
