    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 350°F and prepare a loaf pan by greasing with cooking spray or lining with parchment paper. 
  2. Combine wet ingredients: In a large bowl mix together mashed bananas, coconut sugar, applesauce, milk and vanilla.
  3. Combine dry ingredients: In a medium bowl mix together flours, baking soda and salt.
  4. Mix to combine: Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Don’t over mix or the banana bread can come out dense and gummy. 
  5. Add mix-ins: Add walnuts or other mix-ins.
  6. Bake: Bake 50-60 minutes until toothpick comes out clean. Watch loaf around the 40 minute mark and if the top starts to brown, cover it with foil.
  7. Serve: Remove from oven and let cool in the loaf pan for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.  

Notes

  • Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour
  • Gluten-free: Feel free to use a gluten-free flour blend to make this gluten-free. I tested it with Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour and it worked great, the bread just didn't rise quite as much.
