Equipment

  • Oven

Ingredients
  

Wet ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas 300 g
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil 60 g
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 5 g
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar 100 g

Dry ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups oat flour 150 g
  • 1/2 cup almond flour 50 g
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 g
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1 g
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 g

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips 90 g (to mix into the batter and for topping)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inches loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  • Peel the bananas and place them in a bowl. Mash them with a fork until smooth.
  • In a bowl, add the mashed banana, eggs, coconut oil, vanilla extract and coconut sugar. Whisk until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl mix together oat flour, almond flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
  • Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Stir gently until just combined.
  • Fold batter with chocolate chips by using a wooden spoon or spatula. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Pour batter into the pan and spread evenly. Consequently, add more chocolate chips on top.
  • Bake 50-55 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center. Remove from the oven, allow to cool and gently remove from the pan. Cut in slices and enjoy!

Notes

  • Substitute coconut sugar with brown sugar, date sugar, or regular sugar.
  • Swap out the bananas for an equal amount of applesauce.
  • Replace coconut oil with melted butter or grass-fed butter.
  • Use coconut flour instead of almond flour.
  • To make a sugar-free version, skip the sweetener, but make sure to use ripe bananas!
  • Don’t overmix the batter. Almond flour is made from ground almonds, and overmixing can release oils like almond butter. Mix just enough to get a smooth batter.
