Banana Bread Gone Paleo


Ingredients:
  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tbs honey (you can add more if you like it sweeter. some of the sweetness of the batter will cook off)
  • 2 cups of almond flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
I think this is easiest done in a food processor because it creams the banana really nicely. If you do not have one, just mix the first 5 ingredients in one bowl creaming the banana as much as you can.  Mix the remaining 4 ingredients except the walnuts in another.Add the dry ingredients to the wet then fold in your walnuts.(**If you have a food processor, process the first 5 ingredients together first until it becomes nice and creamy. Add the remaining four ingredients and pulse several times until well incorporated. Next add the walnuts (optional) pulse once or twice.)Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan.  Add some walnuts (optional) to the top of the batter then put into a pre heated 350 degree oven. Bake for about 45 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick. If it comes out clean it is done. --Courtesy of Mom Gone Paleo
