Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cup mashed bananas about 3 large
- 1 egg beaten (room temperature)
- 1 1/2 cups paleo baking flour recommend Bob's Red Mill Paleo Baking Flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons ghee melted (or coconut oil)
- 1/3 - 1/2 cup semi-sweet/dairy-free chocolate chips more, if desired
- Optional: halve a ripe banana length-wise, and place on top before baking
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Grease a 9 x 5 x 3 inch loach pan; set aside.
- Wet Ingredients: Put mashed bananas and a beaten egg in a large bowl; mix well.
- Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine: Stir the flour mixture into the banana mixture.
- Chocolate + Ghee: Mix in chocolate chips and then add the melted ghee. Stir to full combine.
- Pour: Spoon batter into prepared pan.
- Optional: take an extra banana and carefully cut a think strip. Place on the top of the loaf; gently pressing down into the batter with the palm of your hand.
- Bake: Move the pan to the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour, or until toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean.
- Rest + Serve: Let it rest 5 minutes in the pan; carefully use spatula to loosen sides and then turn over onto a wire rack to fully cool. Slice and enjoy!
Notes
- Sweetness: If you want this a little sweeter, you can also had 1/2 cup of coconut sugar into the egg + banana mixture.
- Parchment Paper: feel free to place a piece of parchment across the bread pan (the short way) and then press down - pour the banana bread batter on top, making sure there are flaps sticking out on both sides. This makes it easier to lift out when done baking.
