Banana Bread

I've been experimenting with a lot of different recipes lately-this is one of my favorites. It's perfect for breakfast or as a desert with coconut milk ice cream.

Ingredients: 

3 ripe bananas (spotted) 

3 eggs 

1 cup almond flour

1/4 cup coconut flour 

1/4 cup coconut oil 

1 teaspoon vanilla 

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon baking soda 

1/4 teaspoon salt 

1/2 cup walnuts 

1 tablespoon cinnamon 

*Optional 

1/2 cup pecans 

2 tablespoons maple syrup (the good kind)
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon 

Method: 

Preheat oven to 375. Add coconut oil to an 8 inch cake pan and let it melt in the oven while you make mixture. 

In  mixing bowl, mash bananas well. Add eggs, vanilla, a cinnamon and stir. Add the rest of the ingredients to the bowl and combine mixture well. Take the pan out of the oven and pour the mixture in. The warm oil makes a yummy crust on the cake. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a knife comes out clean. 

*Optional- I like to add maple pecans to mine for added flavor and texture. To do this I toast pecans in a sauté pan and once they're warm I add a few sprinkles of cinnamon and the maple syrup to candy them. While the cake is cooling I add the nuts to the top so they stick.
