Instructions
Preparation:Setting the Stage for Success
- Preheat your oven: Set it to 350°F (175°C), this ensures your oven is ready when the batter is.
- Prepare your loaf pan: Grease it lightly with coconut oil or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Gather your tools: You’ll need a mixing bowl, a whisk, a spatula, and measuring cups.
Mixing the Ingredients
- Mash the bananas: In a large mixing bowl, mash three medium-ripe bananas until smooth. The smoother the puree, the better the texture of your bread.
- Combine wet ingredients: Add the melted coconut oil, plant-based milk, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk until everything is well-blended.
- Mix dry ingredients separately: In another bowl, combine your gluten-free flour blend, baking soda, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
- Bring it all together: Gradually fold the dry mixture into the wet ingredients. Use a spatula to mix gently overmixing can result in dense bread.
BakingInstructions
- Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes. Check for doneness with a toothpick - if it comes out clean, your bread is done.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
