Gluten Free Banana Bread makes 1 loaf

This was a recipe I adapted from an American website called simplyrecipes.com. I wanted it to be slightly healthier so that my kids could legitimately eat it for breakfast!

Ingredients:

3 very ripe bananas, mushed

2 tsp chia seeds

1 tbsp ground flaxseeds

190g GF oat flour (or plain all purpose if not GF)

40g melted butter

pinch salt

70g caster/coconut sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 large egg, beaten

1 tsp baking soda

​

Method:

• Preheat the oven to 175C.

• Grease and line a loaf tin.

• In  a large bowl mix together the bananas and butter.

• Stir in the baking soda and salt, followed by the egg and vanilla.

• Stir in the flour and make sure all the ingredients are well combined.

• Add the rest of the ingredients and stir well.

• Pour the mixture into your tin, scraping every last bit out with a spatula. 

• Bake on the centre shelf for 50 mins or until a skewer comes out clean when inserted into the centre.

• Let it cool in the pan for 5 mins and then turn out onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
