Blueberry Lemon Poppyseed Gluten Free Loaf
Personally, keeping bananas around long enough for baked goods can be somewhat tricky - especially during the summer! On one hand, I actually really like bananas so it’s hard for me not to eat them just on their own… which then leaves me with no bananas for baking. I also love freezing bananas to add to smoothies- frozen bananas leave smoothies so creamy and the perfect consistency .. again leaving me with no bananas. However, if I keep too many around, and they get too ripe.. Well.. we all know what’s bound to happen in the summer- fruit flies! So in order to avoid those pesky little things, I knew I had to bake something up ASAP with the two spotty bananas I had on my counter.
Inspiration for this loaf came from a few different places. I was first in the mood to play around with my coconut flour banana bread so I used that as my inspiration for this loaf. I then decided to sub out the peanut butter for tahini because tahini has a similar consistency and fat content to peanut butter and works great in other baked goods so I felt comfortable making that switch. Last but not least, I had a ton of fresh blueberries in my fridge so naturally I had to go with the blueberry lemon route for this loaf.
All in all I think this is a winner! I’ve even made it without any added sugar. You can definitely tell it’s not a sweet dessert loaf if you go that route, but I think it works great as a snacking bread that won’t spike your glucose and that can be paired with some nut butter, jam, or added to your favorite yogurt bowl!
