Chunky banana bread

This was one of my Friday night goodies. I've been munching on this during the weekend, and it definitely tastes better after a day or two! I also froze a few slices, ready to take out as needed:)

This makes for a slightly dense textured bread due to the use of only oat flour , but if you'd prefer a lighter version, definitely make a mix of oat flour and any other lighter time- wheat, cassava....

CHUNKY BANANA BREAD

  • 135 g oat flour (blended up oats)
  • 35 g oats
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • Pinch of salt
  • Cinnamon
  • About half a cup of apple puree, I used 1 large apple and made my own
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil (or olive oil)
  • 4 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla (I used a pod as well)
  • 3 small-medium bananas (2 mashed, 1 roughly chopped)
  • 50 ml milk
  • Handful of chopped nuts (optional)
  1. Mix the first 6 ingredients together.
  2. If you are making your own apple puree, peel and chop your apple into cubes, place in a saucepan with about 2 tbsp of water and cinnamon, leave to cook down until soft. 
  3. Take the saucepan off the heat, mash the apple with the back of a fork, add in your coconut oil, honey, vanilla and mash in two of your bananas followed by 1 roughly chopped banana.
  4. Pour and mix the wet mixture into your mix from step 1, and slowly pour in enough milk to end up with a smooth cake like batter. Fold in your nuts (if using).
  5. Pour into a well greased and floured baking tin and bake for 30-40 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius until  toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean.
