directions

Step 1

Pre-heat your oven to 375°F (190ºC).

Step 2

Whisk together ground flax and water. Let it sit in the fridge for 15 minutes to thicken.

Step 3

Meanwhile in a large mixing bowl, combine flours, baking powder, sea salt and cinnamon. Stir with a fork until well combined.

Step 4

In a separate mixing bowl mash the ripe bananas to a purée. Then add in vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, non-dairy milk, coconut sugar, and the thickened flax mixture. Stir together until well combined.

Step 5

Add the wet mixture to the bowl of dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined, careful not to over mix. Fold in the chocolate chips.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture to an 8-x-4-inch bread pan greased with a small pea size amount of coconut oil. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon coconut sugar on the top (optional).

Step 7

Bake at 375°F (190ºC) for 50-55 mins. Stick a long skewer or toothpick in the centre to check if it’s done. It should come out relatively clean. Allow the banana bread to cool out of the pan on a rack before cutting into slices or wrapping.
