Gluten-Free Banana Bread

Ingredients

  • 8 tbsp butter
  • ½ cup sugar or stevia
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 3 bananas, mashed
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp bicarbonate soda
  • 1 ¼ cups all-purpose gluten-free flour
  • 1 ½ tsp xantham gum powder
  • 1/3 cup walnuts, chopped (optional)

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  2. Cream together the butter and sugar.
  3. Stir in the beaten egg and banana.
  4. Slowly mix in the salt, bicarb, flour and xantham gum powder.
  5. Fold in the walnut, if using.
  6. Pour into a greased loaf pan and bake for 40-50 minutes.

A delicious family teatime treat. Gluten, nut-free (if you omit the walnuts) and can be dairy-free if you replace the butter with coconut fat. This recipe could also be converted to egg-free with an egg replacer.
