First, let me say that I have to eat gluten free so most of my recipes are recorded as such. I also live at high altitude (6000 ft), so it makes things a little interesting when baking. Nevertheless, here is my recipe with adaptations for lower elevations:
- 2 cups Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp baking powder (use 3/4 at lower elevations)
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1 and 1/2 tsp Xanthan Gum
- 1/3 cup Rice, Coconut or Almond milk (or vegetable oil)
- 1 and 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup agave or maple syrup
- 1 and 1/2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 stevia packet (or 1 Tbsp more agave or other sweetener)
- 2 cups mashed banana
- 1/3 to 2/3 cup chocolate chips
- 1/3 to 2/3 cup walnuts (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 F (375 if at high altitude). Combine dry ingredients and mix well. In a separate bowl, combine wet ingredients and mix into dry. Mix by hand and don’t overmix! Pour into a greased loaf pan and cook 35-50 minutes, depending on how gooey you want it.
Tip: If the top is cooked but the inside is still gooey, put tin foil over the top and continue to cook.
