Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth and creamy.
Add the eggs, unsweetened peanut butter, almond milk, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk together until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, gluten-free oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent a dense texture.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the banana bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
