Whether you're baking for breakfast, lunchboxes or a comforting afternoon snack, this easy gluten free banana bread is one you'll make again and again.

The natural sweetness from ripe bananas keeps every slice wonderfully moist, while our premium gluten free flour delivers the soft texture you'd expect from traditional banana bread.

Ingredients

  • 4 overripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup sugar (depending on how sweet you'd like)
  • 1 large egg, beaten 
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cup Gluten Free Nomad All Purpose Flour
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 170°C
  2. In a large bowl, add the mashed bananas and mix in the melted butter, sugar, egg and vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate small bowl, mix the flour, baking soda and salt together with a whisk. Then, add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. 
  4. Pour the batter into a lined load pan. 
  5. Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour, or until a skewer comes out clean. 
  6. Remove from pan and cool on wire rack 
  7. Enjoy warm or let it cool before serving

Recipe Tips

For the sweetest flavour, use bananas with plenty of brown spots.

Don't overmix the batter, mix only until the flour is combined for a softer loaf.

If the top starts browning too quickly, loosely cover with foil during the final 15–20 minutes of baking.

Allow the loaf to cool before slicing so it sets properly.

Store in an airtight container for up to four days or freeze individual slices for an easy snack.
