Gluten-free banana bread

Banana bread is a timeless classic loved by many, but for those who are gluten intolerant, enjoying this delectable treat can be challenging. This gluten-free banana bread recipe combines the wholesome goodness of buckwheat and coconut flours to deliver a moist, flavorful loaf that everyone can enjoy. Whether you're looking for a new breakfast option or a delightful snack, this recipe is perfect for satisfying your cravings without any gluten.

Ingredients:

1 cup buckwheat flour
150g
1/2 cup coconut flour
80g
1 tsp baking powder
5g
1 tsp baking soda
5g
1 tsp cinnamon
3g
2/3 cup sugar
130g
2 eggs
100g
2 bananas
240g
1/3 cup soy milk
72g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4g
1 tbsp maple syrup
16g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the buckwheat flour, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon. Stir well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
3. Mash the Bananas:
- In a separate bowl, peel and mash the bananas until smooth. A few lumps are okay, but aim for a mostly smooth consistency.
4. Combine Wet Ingredients:
- Add the mashed bananas, sugar, eggs, soy milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup to another large bowl. Whisk together until well combined.
5. Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients:
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir the mixture until just combined; avoid over-mixing as this can make the bread dense.
6. Transfer to Loaf Pan:
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
7. Bake:
- Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Cool:
- Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
9. Serve:
- Slice and enjoy your delicious, gluten-free banana bread either plain or with your favorite spread! The bread can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.

Tips:

- Ensure your bananas are ripe for maximum sweetness and flavor. Overripe bananas work best for this recipe.

- Let your eggs and soy milk come to room temperature before mixing. This helps everything blend more smoothly.

- Mix the dry and wet ingredients separately before combining. This ensures even distribution of baking powder and soda, which will help your bread rise properly.

- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can lead to a tougher texture. Combine just until the ingredients are incorporated.

- Using a high-quality vanilla extract can enhance the overall flavor of your banana bread.

- Let the banana bread cool completely before slicing to avoid it falling apart.

Congratulations! You've successfully made a delicious gluten-free banana bread. With its moist texture, rich banana flavor, and a hint of cinnamon, it's sure to become a favorite in your household. Enjoy it fresh out of the oven, or save some slices for breakfast or a snack later. Happy baking!
