Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, and grease a loaf pan with coconut oil, or line with parchment paper.
- Next, add the bananas to a large mixing bowl and mash. Add the eggs, melted coconut oil, vanilla, and raw honey and mix well.
- Add the remaining dry ingredients and mix until the batter is smooth.
- Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and bake for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Be sure to check at the 40-minute mark and every couple of minutes after to be sure not to overbake the bread.
- Allow to cool before slicing.
- Enjoy with a slab of almond butter and hemp seeds.
This bread is delicious and so easy to make. My young daughter loves it! 🙂
I have been wanting to try this one, Mandie! Thanks for reminding me about it. So glad your family enjoyed it!
I am allergic to coconut oil. What can I substitute?
Thanks,
Betty
Hi Betty! You can substitute butter if you are not dairy free, ghee or any other lighter oil that you prefer. Hope you enjoy it!
Hi all,
I can’t do nuts (though coconut is fine). Has anyone tried this with whole wheat pastry or GF flours?
I am wondering the same thing.
Hi
I can’t do eggs – could increase the bananas and add chia seed egg or flaxmeal??
I’ll let you know how i go.
cheers
We haven’t tested with that, but do let us know how it goes! I have heard that you can sub “flax eggs” (google for the how to) for regular eggs. Keep us updated! 🙂
This was sooooo good. I’m sure it is great as written, but I made a few modifications. I used butter instead of coconut oi. I added an extra banana and omitted the honey. And, I added some chopped pecans. Thanks for the recipe!
Thanks for sharing the modifications that worked for you! So glad you liked it! 🙂
Has anyone tried different oil to coconut? I am just wondering how it tasted.
I love oat flour. I just take the oats and put them in a blender. Then I substitute them for flour by weight. Great nut and gluten free option. ❤️
Thanks for sharing this suggestion, Ashley! 🙂
I made this with half almond flour, half oat flour. Butter instead of coconut oil. And I added butterscotch chips because I thought it wasn’t going to be sweet enough- I was wrong about that but also have no regrets. So yummy
Butterscotch sounds like a delicious addition!
I substituted almond flour with oat flour (pulverized oats, I didn’t have any almond flour) and honey with maple syrup (because I don’t like the taste of honey). I’ve been having my slices with natural almond butter and it’s been wonderful! What a delicious recipe, which, in my opinion, is as nice as traditional recipes which use butter and sugar! I think my partner prefers the traditional recipe as he’s not the biggest fan of the texture the oat meal has given this. Would almond flour be better?
Love hearing how you’re enjoying this recipe, Alice! And what a great substitution. 🙂 The almond flour will likely provide a different texture than what you’ve seen with the oat flour. If you give it a try, please let us know how you and your partner like it with almond flour!
