buckwheat banana bread
Banana bread is one of my all time favourite foods, I would eat it all day every day if I could.. and with all the goodness packed into this particular recipe I might just be able to! Apologies to those who wanted me to make this recipe vegan, I wanted a quick and easy post or pre-workout snack, which meant I wanted it to be as protein packed as possible, which sadly meant eggs, sorry! However this recipe is gluten free for those wondering and for all those who are skeptical of healthy baking, I promise this tastes just as good as a banana bread made with butter, sugar and flour… I think even better!
INGREDIENTS
3 bananas, mashed
3 eggs
1 1/4 cup almond meal
3/4 cup buckwheat flour
1/4 cup ground flaxseed
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
3/4 cup skim milk
1/2 tsp bicard soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla essence
1/3 cup coconut oil , melted
2 tbs maple syrup
3 tsp apple cider vinegar
METHOD Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius. combine all the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Then mix in the eggs, vinegar and coconut oil, followed by the milk. Next add the banana and the walnuts and stir until all well combined. Pour mixture into a lightly greased or lined loaf tin and bake in the oven for 45-60 mins – check it occasionally.
