Paleo Banana Bread (Super Moist!)
Description
This Paleo Banana Bread uses mashed ripe bananas mixed with almond flour, tapioca flour, and baking soda for leavening. Ground cinnamon and salt provide gentle warmth and balance. Eggs bind the batter, while melted butter or coconut oil adds richness and moisture. Honey and vanilla enhance natural sweetness and aroma.
The batter is poured into a greased loaf pan with a halved fresh banana layered on top, which caramelizes and adds visual appeal. Baking at 350°F for 50 to 60 minutes yields a moist, tender crumb. Using a toothpick ensures doneness without overbaking, preserving moistness.
This banana bread offers a grain-free alternative with familiar texture and flavor. It slices well for breakfast, snacks, or dessert, complementing nut butters or fresh fruit.

- 2-3 banana ripe, approx 1 1/4 cups mashed

- 1/4 cup honey

*Additional butter or coconut oil is needed to grease the loaf pan
Instructions

- Use butter or coconut oil to grease the inside of a loaf pan (8.5 x 4.5 inch) and set aside.
- Mash the bananas with a fork in a mixing bowl. Add the remaining ingredients, then use a hand mixer to blend everything together for 30 seconds. Pour the batter into the loaf pan
- Peel and slice the fresh banana in half lengthwise, then place it on top of the batter.
- Cook the banana bread for 50-60 minutes. If the top gets too golden, you can cover with a piece of aluminum foil. Use a toothpick to test that the banana bread is cooked through.
