Bananas are not only delicious prebiotic foods but they contain potassium, magnesium and the amino acid L-tryptophan, which supports the healthy production of our neurotransmitters, serotonin and melatonin.
The following recipe in addition to my Banana Pikelets, are two of the many recipes I use bananas in that are Bees family favourites!
GF BANANA BREAD
INGREDIENTS
- 1 bread loaf tin- roughly 15-27cm in size
- 4 ripe bananas
- 4 organic eggs
- 2 tsp of cinnamon
- 1 tsp of nutmeg
- 1 cup of banana flour
- 1 cup of chopped walnuts
- 1 whole walnut- to place on top of the bread 🙂
- 1/3 cup of melted coconut oil
- 2 Tbs raw organic honey (can use rice syrup or maple syrup)
- 1 tsp of organic vanilla powder
- 1 tsp of baking powder
- Organic butter to grease / or sheet of baking paper
METHOD
- Preheat your oven to 180 degree celsius.
- Grease the bread loaf tin- or line with baking paper
- Blend bananas, eggs, honey, vanilla and coconut oil- I use stick hand blender, until it becomes like a smoothie consistency
- Then stir through baking powder and cinnamon, continue to blend
- Add walnuts and then sift through the flour
- Once stirred thoroughly, pour into baking loaf tin
- Top it with a walnut
- Bake in the oven for 30min or until a fork in the middle comes out clean
- Allow to cool and serve when desired 🙂
We normally serve it with delicious grass fed organic butter- enjoy!!
