Healthy Banana Bread
I don't know anything about making real bread and letting it rest, raise, the whole thing seems complicated. But Banana bread is EASY!! I would compare it more to making cupcakes or muffins then actual bread.
Anytime I have bananas that have gotten to ripe, I mush them up with a fork.
All add the dry ingredients into the bowl:
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda (NOT baking powder; they aren’t the same)
Add 1 ¾ cups flour and mix.
Then add all the wet ingredients in.
⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
½ cup maple syrup
2 eggs
¼ cup milk of choice or water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Whisk all the ingredients well for several minutes until it is smooth.
Grease a loaf pan and pour the ingredients in the pan.
Bake the loaf for about an hour at 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
You will know its ready by sticking a toothpick in and pull it out without clean. It will also begin to crack on the top.
This is a great recipe for little ones! The baby loves banana bread and no added sugar other then the syrup! Win Win :)
