I just love a great loaf of banana bread! Can banana bread be healthy for you? The answer to that question is: Absolutely! In this recipe, I use coconut flour which is a nice alternative flour that is gluten free and grain free. The bananas in this recipe naturally sweeten this loaf of bread allowing us to leave out the processed sugar that so many of us try to stay away from. Yes, there are a lot of eggs in this recipe, but organic eggs are so good for you. This morning instead of my 3 egg omelet that I usually have, I had 2 slices of this bread with some grass fed butter on them (you certainly don’t have to put on butter, I just like it that way), a little fruit and a nice cup of tea. This bread is perfect for breakfast or for snacking. So don’t throw away those overly ripe bananas! Mash them up and try out this wonderful recipe.

This recipe is super good! I didn’t add the walnuts and it’s still amazing. Came out a little spongier than expected maybe i didn’t let sit long enough? Anyway, it’s delicious. Recommended it to my friends and family right after

Hi! Can you substitute olive oil for the coconut oil in this recipe? I don’t have coconut oil and am trying to use the ingredients I have on hand right now. Thanks!
