Banana Bread!!! Mmmmmm

Banana Bread!!!

Tonight I thought I would post my banana bread. It is really very good. Ever time I make it we intend to share, but it never lasts long enough to hand out. LOL This is a great recipe to make into muffins also. Can you say breakfast?

Banana Bread
    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, And grease your pans or muffin liners.
4-5 Over Ripe Bananas Smash with a potato masher
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Baking Powder
3/4 tsp Salt
Mix well
1 Cup Apple Sauce (Unsweetened)
1 Cup Coconut Sugar, Stevia powder, or Honey (Don't use Honey if you are making this Vegan)
2 tsp Vanilla
3 Tbsp Corn Starch
4 Tbsp Tapioca Flour
or 3Tbsp Ground Flax in 5-6 Tbsp water let this sit on the side to thicken. Add before flour but let it sit for 5ish Minutes
Mix well
Add in your Flax if you went that direction
add in your optional add ins:
    Here are a few other flavors that I have added to this recipe. All are yummy and worth playing with. :)
*Fresh Cranberries (about 1 Cup) with Grated Orange Zest (off of 2 oranges)
*Chocolate Chips (Vegan,1 Cup) with Doterra Orange oil (4-5 Drops or you can Zest again)
*Chocolate Chips (Vegan) with Nuts About 1 Cup each
*Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Nuts (1tsp Cinnamon, 1/4 tsp Nutmeg, 1 Cup Walnuts, or Slivered Almonds, etc. Cashews don't really work however, they seem to be to soft for baking in this recipe.)
Mix

4 Cups Whole Wheat Flour Spoon in the flour into the measuring cup and add one cup at a time. It should be the consistency that is not quite as thick as cookie dough. Eye ball it add a little more flour if needed or don't add all of it if it seems to thick. Sorry for not having the exact measurement on this part. I always eyeball it. Tomorrow for breakfast I will make a batch and show the dough and make them into muffins instead of loafs so you can see the yumminess!!! :)

Place in your oven
For muffins 35-40 Minutes
For Loaf 60-75 Minutes
Stick a butter knife in if it comes out clean you are good to go!!!
  *Note: The top will crack on your loafs. At that point check them also they may seam a little to dark but it is ok they will still taste good. My family knows that they are just a little dark but NOT burnt. Check out the picture. See Dark Tops= Cooked inside.

Enjoy much love, Emily Bryar
