Healthy Banana bread 

Ingredients

3 medium (very ripe) bananas (approx. 400g)

1 tsp vanilla essence

1/4 cup macadamia oil (or melted coconut oil)

1/3 cup rice malt syrup (or honey)

2 cups almond meal 

1/2 cup quinoa flour*

2 tsp cinnamon 

1/4 tsp Himalayan pink salt 

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp baking soda

2 eggs 

​

​

*You could use more almond meal OR another plain flour of your choice.

​

**You can add fruit or nuts into the mix, I like to use walnuts or strawberries/pear for something a bit different. 

Method: 

1. Pre heat oven to 160C fan forced and use some coconut oil to grease a small loaf tin.

​

2. Blend banana, vanilla, macadamia (or coconut) oil and rice malt syrup in a large food processor. (Alternatively, you can mash it very well). 

​

3. In a separate bowl mix together almond meal, quinoa flour, cinnamon, salt, baking powder and soda, then add it to the banana mix. Blend/mix well until combined and a batter consistency is reached.

​

4. Add two eggs to the mix and blend again until it is all combined.

​

5. Put the mixture into a small loaf tin and then in the oven for 50-60 mins, or until cooked through.

​

Note: Oven times may vary depending on your oven.
