If you prefer a sweeter banana bread, add a bit of honey, coconut blossom sugar, or agave syrup to taste. Almond flour gives the bread a delicious nutty texture — and it’s naturally gluten-free.

  • Serves: 12 (25 cm cake tin)

Ingredients

  • 4 bananas, ripe
  • 3 eggs
  • 150 g almond flour
  • 60 g sugar, alternatively 60 medjoul dates (about 3 dates)
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 75 g almonds, roughly chopped
  • 30 g coconut, shredded
  • pinch salt

Method

  • 1)

    Preheat the oven to 175 °C (top and bottom heat).

    In a mixing bowl, blend 3 ripe bananas and the sugar (alternatively pitted dates) using a hand blender until smooth.

  • 3)

    Add the eggs one at a time, whisking them into the mixture.

  • 7)

    Bake for about 45 minutes in the preheated oven. The banana bread is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

    Let the banana bread cool slightly in the tin, then remove it and place it on a wire rack to cool completely.
