Healthier Banana Bread
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 butter, room temp or slightly 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
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly grease a 9″ x 5″ loaf pan (I used glass).
- Combine all the dry ingredients and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the butter, coconut sugar, and vanilla, beating until smooth and lighter in color.
- Add the mashed bananas, honey, eggs, and milk (or water). Beat until combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and gently fold together with a spatula. Don’t over-mix it.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top.
- Bake for 45 minutes, then gently lay a piece of parchment paper across the top to prevent over-browning.
- 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.
- Allow the bread to cool for 10-15 minutes in the pan. Then remove it from the pan to cool completely on a rack.
