Fact: I love banana bread. Who doesn’t anyway?

Since Tashi and I had started on ketogenic diet in December, we have been good in staying away from food high in carbohyrdates.  Thankfully, it’s not so difficult to find low-carb recipes. I utilize the free information provided by the internet and has been fortunate in finding recipes shared by people who are also on the same diet.

Here’s the recipe of low-carb banana bread as shared by Radiant Life:

Ingredients:

• 3 ripe bananas, organic, mashed
• 1/3 c grass-fed butter or extra virgin coconut oil, melted
• 6 eggs (preferably pastured)
• 2 tbsp raw honey
• 1 tsp alcohol-free vanilla extract
• 1/2 c organic coconut flour
• 1 tsp aluminum-free baking powder
• 1 tsp pure baking soda
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1 tbsp cinnamon
• 1/3 c sprouted nuts, chopped (optional)

Direction:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease one loaf pan.
• In a medium size bowl combine bananas and melted butter, mixing thoroughly. Add eggs, honey and vanilla. Whisk until eggs are combined.
• In a small bowl add remaining dry ingredients, stirring lightly. Combine with wet ingredients, add in nuts and stir.
• Transfer batter to greased pan and bake for about 45 minutes. Bread is complete when toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• Remove bread from oven and allow to cool in pan for about 5 minutes until transferring to wire racks to continue cooling.

ENJOY!
