Paleo Almond Flour Banana Bread

The Recipe

Paleo Almond Flour Banana Bread

Yields 1 loaf

Dry ingredients

2 cups blanched almond flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/8 tsp Himalayan salt

Wet ingredients

3 very ripe, spotty bananas
2 pasture-raised eggs or flax eggs (if using flax eggs you may need to add a splash of extra water as flax absorbs liquids, unlike eggs)
1/4 cup melted Dastony stone ground coconut butter
2 Tbs maple syrup

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 350F and grease your bread loaf pan with a little coconut oil, or line with parchment paper.

2. Mix dry and wet ingredients separately, then combine in a large bowl.

3. Pour mixture into your prepped loaf pan and pop it in the oven for 50 minutes. The top should be starting to lightly brown and a toothpick should come out clean when stuck through the center.

Be sure to let it sit for at least an hour to cool before slicing. It will carry over cook and needs time to fully set or it will be too soft to slice.
