Banana Bread Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas mashed (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour with xanthan gum
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips optional
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Whisk in eggs, coconut oil, brown sugar, and vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually add to the banana mixture.
Stir until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips if using.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Bake for 50–60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
