Almond & Coconut Flour Banana Bread

 My husband and I are trying to get back on track with eating well every day! I had some bananas that were about to go bad and since the weather is turning cold I wanted something baked and delicious. This recipe was pretty simple to come up with once I looked in my pantry and saw what I had available! I just tweaked a normal bana bread with some substitutions and additions! I hope you enjoy!

 I will be adding some pictures once I bake it again. The bread was so delicious that it didn’t last long!

4 eggs
3 bananas
1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
¼ cup flax meal
¼ cup water
¼ cup coconut oil
¼ c honey
1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup almond flour
⅔ cup coconut flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon nutmeg
¾ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt

***Add in options- chopped nuts, raisins, chocolate chips ( I used walnuts and a few chocolate chips)

***If you omit the flax, omit the water as well.

Mash bananas, whip eggs, and mix all wet ingredients (plus flax) together, thoroughly.

Separately, mix dry ingredients together with a fork. Add dry ingredients to the first mixture.

Let your mixture rest for a few minutes to allow the coconut flour to absorb evenly, then mix again. Bake at 300 for about an hour if using a loaf pan. I like to use 4 mini loaf pans, which took about 40 minutes. Bake until an inserted knife comes out clean and the loaf feels firm.
