Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rice flour
- 3 medium Ripe bananas
- 0.75 cup Coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
- 2 Eggs
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or any milk alternative)
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil (melted) or neutral oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional)
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or dried fruit (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan with oil or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
Add the eggs, coconut sugar, melted coconut oil, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
In a medium bowl, sift together the rice flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using).
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
If desired, fold in the chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or dried fruit for extra texture and flavor.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
Transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. Enjoy!
