Ingredients
- 2-3 banana ripe, approx 1 1/4 cups mashed
- 1 banana fresh
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/2 cup tapioca flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 egg large
- 1/4 cup butter or coconut oil, melted
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
*Additional butter or coconut oil is needed to grease the loaf pan
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
- 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.
