Instructions
Paleo Banana Bread
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper, allowing some extra to fold over the edges to make it easier to lift out the banana bread.
- Mash the bananas with a fork in a large bowl. Add the eggs, melted coconut oil, lemon zest and juice, and coconut sugar and whisk well. Add the almond flour, tapioca starch, and the baking soda and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Add the raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries and gently fold into the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and top with a few extra berries. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Halfway through baking, cover the loaf with aluminum foil to prevent the top from browning too much.
- Let the banana bread cool for 10 minutes then carefully lift it out of the pan and finish cooling on a cooling rack. Drizzle with the lemon glaze.
Paleo Lemon Glaze
- Place all the ingredients in a high powered blender and blend on high until smooth. If you have a regular blender, strain the glaze through a fine mesh sieve after you blend it so that it is smooth.
Notes
- To make this banana bread extra healthy, we'll often add ½ cup of Vital Proteins collagen powder to the batter. For more ideas about how to cook with collagen, check out these recipes:
