Are you hankering for something deliciously delightful? Perhaps you aren’t gluten-free but you have a friend or family member who is. Here’s just the recipe for you! It’s gloriously good if not better than the regular run of the mill banana nut bread recipes.

Of course, it’s my recipe so it’s made to my specs, but I urge you to give it a shot. All takers have been pleasantly surprised by it’s show up and deliver-ability. I feel confident this will tickle your taste buds and make baking– or eating a real adventure!

Roll up your sleeves. Turn on some groovy tunes, don your fancy bake wear (below is my sassy apron example) and preheat that oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x5x3 loaf pan with coconut oil.

List of ingredients

1 ¾ cup of Gluten Free Flour (I like Pamela’s brand)

2 eggs

1 tsp Baking Powder

½ tsp Baking Soda

1 cup mashed overripe bananas (approximately two)

½ cup chopped walnuts

Mix ½ cup of coconut oil

½ cup of coconut sugar

¼ cup chopped dates (optional)

1 tsp of vanilla (optional)

A pinch of salt

Directions

In a large mixing bowl, combine gluten-free flour, baking powder, baking soda, coconut sugar, pinch of salt. Add the dates, coconut oil, eggs, bananas, walnuts and vanilla.

Bake for 45 minutes or until toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Cool the pan for 15 minutes, then remove from pan to cool completely.

1) No one can tell you are serving gluten-free goodness.

2) This banana nut bread is so moist that at the request of my favorite person, I was asked if I could turn it into his birthday cake with cream cheese icing. Yes, it’s really that good. Besides, I did it for love.

3) Hide this gloriously good loaf from yourself and your family. Trust no nose, the smell is tantalizing! Tighten security around your neighbors and guests.

4) Wisely postpone cutting this loaf of cherub-like goodness until the last possible second.
