this banana bread recipe is a keeper! It's simple, easy and contains few ingredients. Plus it's DELICIOUS!
I think this banana bread is one of the healthiest you could make, without skimping on flavor, texture and overall yumminess. Instead of vegan shortening I used the same amount of Organic grass-fed butter. I also threw in a couple tablespoons of chia seeds, and a dash of cinnamon. Try experimenting with adding some frozen blueberries and a handful of rolled oats, ground flax seed, or add a 1/4c Maca Root Powder.

Addendum: Please note, I made a mistake in transcribing this recipe from paper to website. The correct baking time for this recipe is 55-65 minutes, not 30 minutes. I apologize for this error.
When you make this banana bread, be sure to use ripe bananas. Also, if you want the loaf to be as tall as mine, then use the recommended size loaf pan, if you use a larger one, your batter will spread out to fill the horizontal dimension of the pan and will be short when it comes to the vertical dimension.
If you do not have (or are allergic to) the recommended ingredients and wish to make the loaf, feel free to experiment with your own ingredient choices and let us know how it goes. I am not sure how your desired substitutions will work out; as I often say, I wish I had a crystal ball and could automatically know if an ingredient change would work (or not). However, I do test each recipe, each time I make the slightest variation (think ¼ teaspoon of baking soda –if I add or subtract that, it’s a whole new batch of bread in the oven).
So, since I’m out to make the most recipes I can for my family (and you all), I’m moving on from this recipe and heading out to conquer others and make more gluten free Paleo recipes for everyone.
