Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 2 large eggs organic
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/2 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 3 medium, ripe mashed bananas
- 1 1/4 cups whole-wheat flour
- 1 1/4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup roughly chopped walnuts optional
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with coconut oil. Line pan with parchment paper. Leave some paper hanging off the sides.
- Whisk eggs and maple syrup in a large mixing bowl until they're frothy and lighter in color. Stir in Greek yogurt and mashed bananas until combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix whole-wheat flour, 1 cup rolled oats, baking soda, sea salt, and cinnamon.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mix. Add chopped walnuts, if using.
- Pour the batter into the loaf pan. Sprinkle 1/4 cup oats on top. Bake in the oven for 50-60 minutes. Cover the loaf with foil once it starts to brown to prevent the edges from becoming too dark.
- Remove from oven and cool the bread in the loaf pan on a wire rack for at least 10 minutes.
