Makes 1 full size loaf or 2 small loaves

Ingredients:

4 spotted/mushy bananas (medium-large)

4 tablespoons softened coconut oil

2 eggs

1/2 cup coconut nectar

1 cup gluten-free flour of your choice

1 cup almond meal/flour

1 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon cardamom (optional)

3/4 cup walnuts (optional) or any other nut, shredded coconut or chocolate chips

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease (with coconut oil) the pans of your choice. Combine wet ingredients (bananas, eggs, coconut oil, coconut nectar) in a large mixing bowl until soft (use fork or potato masher). It’s okay for small chunks of banana to be left in the batter; it doesn’t have to be perfectly smooth.

Mix all the rest of the dry ingredients together.

Combine wet into dry. You can add any nuts (pecans, walnets, almond pieces, etc) or coconut flakes at this point.

Pour dough into pan(s) and bake until a toothpick comes out clean (roughly 40-50 minutes depending on loaf size, smaller ones will cook faster, and one large one will take longer), keep checking and remove when the top is golden brown.
