Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • bread baking tin small/short
  • baking paper to line bread baking tin

Ingredients

  • 5 ripe bananas
  • 200 g self raising flour (I use gluten-free) see substitutions
  • 100 ml milk (I use almond) see ingredients description
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup (or honey)
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon optional
  • 100 g pecans or vegan chocolate, crushed optional
Metric - US Customary

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 200C / 390F. To a large mixing bowl add 4 ripe bananas and mash with a fork.
  • Now add the flour, milk, maple syrup, cinnamon and baking powder and mix
  • Add around 3/4 of the crushed pecans/chocolate and mix again
  • Pour the mix into a lined bread loaf tin. I use a small/short tin as normal can be too long which impacts how high it will rise. (I grease the baking paper with coconut oil just to help the non stick). Slice a banana down the middle and push into the mix and top with leftover pecans. Bake for 35-40 minutes
  • IMPORTANT: Allow it to cool for 15-20 before slicing this helps it to firm up. 

Notes

Step-by-Step Photos: My blog post includes helpful step-by-step photos to help guide you through making this recipe.
Substitutions & Variations: I have included a list of these in the post above.
To Store: In an airtight container or wrapped in plastic wrap at room temperature for 2-3 days.
To Freeze:Allow it to fully cool. You can either cut it into slices for convenience or simply freeze the entire loaf. To defrost, remove and allow to fully thaw at room temperate before eating.
Tip 1: Sieving the flour can help to get a lighter texture but not essential. 
Tip 2: Stick a toothpick into the centre to check for doneness before removing from oven.
Tip 3: Allow it to cool for 15-20 minutes before slicing.
