Ingredients
- 1 cup dates
- 3 banana ripe
- ⅓ cup tahini
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- 2 egg large
- 1¼ cups flour (oat, whole wheat, all-purpose)
- 1 cup old-fashioned oatmeal
- 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉ and coat a loaf pan with cooking spray and then parchment paper.
- Place the date in a measuring cup and add ½ cup hot water. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mash the bananas with a fork.
- After 10 minutes, blend the dates and water using an immersion blender.
- Mix the eggs with the tahini and Greek yogurt. Add in the dates and mashed bananas and mix to combine.
- Add in the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Stir to combine.
- Transfer to a loaf pan, top with sesame seeds and bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
- To ensure doneness, inset a toothpick in the middle of the bread and if it comes out clean, it's ready.
- Let the bread cool for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing.
Notes
- Use Ripe Bananas: Make sure the bananas are ripe but not mushy. underripe bananas will not work for this recipe.
- Ensure Proper Date Blending: Soaking and blending the dates thoroughly ensures they integrate smoothly into the batter, providing natural sweetness without chunks.
- Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing can lead to a dense loaf. Stir just until the dry ingredients are incorporated.
- Check for Doneness: Baking times can vary. If the top browns too quickly, cover it loosely with foil. Use the toothpick test to ensure the center is fully baked.
- Let It Cool Completely: Cooling allows the bread to set properly, making it easier to slice without crumbling.
