Gluten-Free Banana Bread
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 55 minutes
Yields: 2 loaves
Ingredients:
2 cups gluten-free all-purpose baking flour
1 teaspoon aluminum free baking soda
1/4 teaspoon celtic sea salt
4 eggs
4 mashed organic bananas
1 cup lakanto or xylitol (both amazing sugar substitutes for baking)
2 medium apples
½ tablespoon cinnamon
1/3 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
Directions:
♥ Mix all dry ingredients into a bowl: flour, baking soda, salt, and lakanto or xylitol.
♥ Mash bananas in a separate bowl for wet ingredients. Add eggs, olive oil, and vanilla and whisk.
♥ Blend two apples (cored) and cinnamon in a blender. Skin on the apple is ok!
♥ Combine everything together and mix in walnuts.
♥ Coat loaf pans with organic butter, pour in batter and cook at 350 degrees for 50 minutes. The last 5 minutes I moved the pans to a lower shelf in the oven so the top wouldn’t burn.
♥ Let sit for 10 minutes, slice and serve!
*I have been trying out gluten-free recipes for some time and finally figured out the perfect recipe for me. Not too dry or sweet and tastes like real banana bread. Enjoy!
Love & brussels sprouts,
Hi Brenna,
I stumbled upon your webiste/blog while doing a search on bone broth. I must say… I am thrilled to have found you!!! Love all the great information you share with us, along with sharing your own story and journey. Add me to your list of fans 🙂
Quick question: Instead of xylitol or laknato, I prefer to sticking with coconut nectar for my ‘sugar’ sweetener. Any advise on how to use in your baking recipes?
Thanks so much!
Blessings and ligt to you~
Kim
Hi Kim,
Thank you so much! I, too, like to switch up my sweeteners. Coconut sugar or nectar can be substituted 1 to 1 for xylitol or lakanto. 🙂

Hi Brenna — I’d love to make this recipe. Thanks for sharing it. My question is what size loaf pans did you use? It says the recipe makes two loaves; are these small loaves?
thanks,
Kathleen
Hi Kathleen, They are about 11 x 5 x 3 🙂
