Almond Butter Banana Bread
Almond butter paleo banana bread is moist, flavorful, and loaded with banana goodness! This wholesome loaf is the perfect healthy snack or breakfast.
Ingredients
- 2 large ripe bananas peeled
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/3 cup unsweetened almond butter see note*
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups Super Fine Almond Flour
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 9" x 5" loaf pan with parchment paper. Note: you can also spray the bread pan with cooking spray.
- Add all of the ingredients to a blender and blend until completely smooth. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and smooth into an even layer. Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 35 to 45 minutes, until the center has set up. Turn off the heat of the oven, and allow the loaf to sit in the hot oven for 5 minutes more.
- Remove banana bread from the oven and allow it to cool at least 1 hour before releasing it from the bread pan. To do so, run a knife between the loaf and the bread pan and use a spatula to help detach the bottom of the loaf from the pan. Turn the loaf out onto a cutting board. Cut into thick slices and serve with a smear of butter, almond butter, and/or jam.
Notes
*I used a no-stir almond butter. If your almond butter is oily, be sure to stir it well before adding. You can also use peanut butter or cashew butter!
