Cuisine American
Servings 1 loaf

Ingredients
  

  • 3 mashed very ripe bananas
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 melted butter
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar *can also use regular sugar and it will be sweeter and not refined sugar free
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour** (see note) I use Bob's 1:1 gluten free
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350F
  • In a large bowl, whisk the egg. Add the mashed bananas, butter, coconut sugar, maple syrup, and vanilla. Stir to combine.
  • In a smaller bowl, combine with flour, salt, and baking soda.
  • Add the flour to the wet bowl and stir until just combined. Careful to not over stir. Gently stir in the walnut pieces.
  • In a greased bread tin, spoon in mixture. Bake for about 45 minutes. Baking time will depend on oven. Mine bakes at 45 minutes max! Remove, cool for at least 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to completely cool. Enjoy!

Notes

Cook time will vary, but mine cooks for about 40 minutes, 45 MAX.
Remember to spoon your flour into a measuring cup.  Do not scoop directly from the jar or bag.  This can result in too much flour and will turn the bread dry.  You want to spoon in and do not pack it!
