Banana bread is one of the best treats ever! It makes a great breakfast, snack or dessert. 

It is so easy to make and you can change up the flavour combinations, by adding raspberries, blueberries, macadamias or even chocolate chips. 

But my favourite is the simple plain verson! Nothing beats the flavour when it is made right and this version is the best gluten free version out there. Plus you don't need any fancy ingredients, just simple ingredients that you will find in any supermarket.

Ingredients

• 3 medium ripe bananas (the riper the better!!!)
• 3 large eggs
• 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
• 1/4 cup maple syrup (optional, exclude to make low carb)
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon powder
• 1 teaspoon gluten free baking powder
• 2 cups almond meal

Instructions

1. Heat oven to 180C | 350F (or 160C | 320F fan forced)
2. Lightly grease a loaf pan and line with baking paper or use silicon loaf pan (to save yourself the extra hassle).
3. In a large bowl, combine the bananas, eggs, maple syrup (if using) coconut oil and vanilla extract.
4. Then add the almond meal, baking powder and cinnamon powder to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined.
5. Pour or spoon the mixture into the loaf pan.
6. Bake for approximately 50 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
7. Let cool in the loaf pan for 30 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool for a further 30 minutes.

Notes

• The 30 minutes additional time is the time you need to leave it in the baking tin to cool down. You should cool it a bit further on a wire rack before eathing, but if you wanted to have a sneaky piece while it is still warm, then it should be fine.
• Make it low carb by simply omitting the maple syrup. You do not need to adjust the cooking time at all.
• Make sure the eggs have been kept at room temperature before using and are not cold.
• You can store in your fridge for 4-5 days or in your freezer for up to 3 months when stored correctly.
