Ingredients

Scale

Dry:

335 g heritage flour (Sunrise Flour Mill)

1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

Wet:

8 Tbsp grass-fed butter, room temp or softened (not melted)

3/4 cup coconut sugar (120g)

1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

400 g mashed very ripe banana (about 4 medium)

1/4 cup honey

2 large eggs

57 g water or milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly grease a 9″ x 5″ loaf pan (I used glass).
  2. Combine all the dry ingredients and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the butter, coconut sugar, and vanilla, beating until smooth and lighter in color. 
  4. Add the mashed bananas, honey, eggs, and milk (or water). Beat until combined.
  5. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and gently fold together with a spatula. Don’t over-mix it.
  6. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top. 
  7. Bake for 45 minutes, then gently lay a piece of parchment paper across the top to prevent over-browning.
  8. Bake for an additional 25 minutes. Remove the bread from the oven; a long toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean, with a few wet crumbs clinging to it. The tester shouldn’t show any sign of uncooked batter. If it does, bake the bread an additional 5 minutes, or until it tests done.
  9. Allow the bread to cool for 10-15 minutes in the pan. Then remove it from the pan to cool completely on a rack.
