Enjoy a slice for breakfast, snack, or as a dessert. It's a perfect way to use up those overripe bananas and satisfy your sweet tooth guilt-free.

Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed bananas, eggs, honey, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  3. Add the almond flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt to the bowl. Stir until all the ingredients are well combined.
  4. If desired, fold in the chopped walnuts.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
  6. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
  8. Enjoy the almond flour banana bread plain or with your favorite spreads and toppings.
