Gluten Free Banana Bread


3 large ripe bananas
½ cup coconut flour
1 cup white rice flour or sprouted brown rice flour
¼ cup organic honey
1/3 cup softened butter (if you are dairy free use melted coconut oil)
3 eggs (if you are egg free use egg replacer or flax eggs)
2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp sea salt
1 TB cinnamon
  1. Mash up the bananas in your mixing bowl with the back of a fork.
  2. Pour the rest of the ingredients in the mixing bowl and blend with and mixer until blended through.
  3. Spread the batter in a well greased (with butter or coconut oil) small loaf pan.
  4. Bake at 350 fo 45-50 minutes. Do the toothpick test though – you may have to bake a little longer.

Kitchen Tips:
  1. This freezes up great! If you see ripe bananas go on sale at the grocery store, stock up and make up some of this bread for the freezer! I did this right before I had my second baby and loaded up my freezer with 4 loaves that took care of breakfast or snacks for a while after baby was born!
  2. Because of the great nutrition and filling quality of the ingredients in this bread, it makes a perfect breakfast topped with cream cheese, butter, or coconut butter.
  3. Make up the batter the night before if you have to so all you have to do is stick it in the oven in the morning while getting ready for the day. The batter only takes about 5-7 minutes to get together anyway!
  4. Makes great muffins too! This recipe fills up a 12 muffin tin but you will want to bake them more like 25 minutes – keep an eye on them and tooth pick test them!
