Truth be told, sometimes I buy extra bananas at the store just so I can have an excuse to make this bread. It’s moist and delicious, and I promise, you won’t be missing the gluten! This recipe is also free of refined sugar, sweetened instead by natural sugars (that makes it healthy, right? Well, at least healthier).
Makes 1 loaf
Preparation time: 15 minutes

3 ripe bananas
½ Cup maple syrup

Note: For the flour in this banana bread I’m using the recipe for homemade gluten-free all purpose flour by Shawna Coronado, author of Stacked With Flavor, referenced in this article on The Kitchn blog. https://www.thekitchn.com/16-gluten-free-flour-alternatives-22943791
