Almond Flour Banana Bread
Report
Almond Flour Banana Bread is naturally gluten-free and tastes like the real thing! It's the perfect way to use up any ripe bananas you have on hand.

Ingredients
- 3 large ripe bananas (about 1 ¼ cups mashed)
- 2 cups blanched almond flour
- 3 large eggs
- ⅓ cup maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- handful of chocolate chips or walnuts (optional topping)

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF and lightly spray a loaf pan with oil. I also like to line it with parchment paper, so the bread will easily lift out later. Peel the bananas and mash them on a plate.
- Add the mashed banana to a large mixing bowl, along with the almond flour, eggs, maple syrup, salt, baking powder, cinnamon, and olive oil. Stir well, until no lumps remain.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Sprinkle any optional toppings you like over the loaf, then bake until the top starts to crack and feels firm to the touch in the very center, about 55 to 60 minutes.
- Let the bread cool completely in the pan, then slice and serve. Because this bread is so moist, I recommend storing it in the fridge for the best shelf life, up to 1 week.
Notes
- Nutrition information is for 1 of 12 slices with no optional toppings. This will vary depending on how thick or thin you slice it, so this is just an estimate and not a guarantee.
- I use olive oil in this recipe because it doesn't thicken when it comes into contact with eggs that are cold from the fridge. If you would prefer, you can use coconut oil instead, or you can leave it out if you don't mind a slightly different texture for the bread. (The oil makes it easier to slice, in my opinion.)
- Note: If you only have two ripe bananas on hand, that can also work in this recipe! The banana flavor will be slightly more subtle in that case.
