  • Total Time: 55 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1.5 cup Gluten Free Flour 1:1 (preferred brand is Bob's Red Mill)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup applesauce (unsweetened)
  • 1/2 cup dairy free butter, melted and cooled
  • 1 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 3 large bananas)
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch bread pan to ensure the banana bread doesn’t stick during baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Stir until evenly mixed and set aside for later.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate medium-sized bowl, add the unsweetened applesauce, granulated sugar, and melted dairy-free butter. Make sure the butter is cooled to avoid cooking the eggs later.
  4. Mash Bananas: Thoroughly mash the ripe bananas until smooth with no large lumps remaining. Measure exactly 1 cup of mashed banana to add to your wet mixture for best texture.
  5. Add Bananas to Wet Mixture: Stir the mashed bananas into the sugar and butter mixture until combined.
  6. Mix Wet Ingredients: Using an electric handheld mixer on medium speed, blend the wet ingredients until thoroughly incorporated.
  7. Add Eggs: Crack in the two large eggs and continue mixing with the electric mixer until well combined.
  8. Combine with Dry Ingredients: Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture.
  9. Mix Batter: Use a large mixing spoon to fold the flour into the wet ingredients until just combined. Avoid over mixing to keep the bread tender.
  10. Prepare to Bake: Pour the banana bread batter into the greased 9x5 inch bread pan, spreading it evenly.
  11. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 37-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, indicating the bread is fully cooked.

Notes

  • Make sure bananas are ripe for maximum sweetness and moisture.
  • Do not over mix the batter to avoid a dense texture.
  • You can substitute dairy-free butter with coconut oil if preferred.
  • Check for doneness starting at 37 minutes to prevent overbaking.
  • This bread freezes well; wrap tightly and thaw before serving.
