- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup water or almond milk
- 2 cups chopped walnuts or nuts of your choice optional
- 1 cup craisins or raisins optional
Instructions
- Makes Two Loaves
- Prepare 2 loaf pans (I use aluminum 4 1/2" x 8 1/2" pans) by spreading non stick coating. I use a combination of coconut oil and liquid lecithin as a non stick coating. Get out 2 mixing bowls.
- Set oven to 350º and place air baking sheet in oven
In SMALLER BOWL combine dry ingredients and whisk together:
- 3 ½ cups spelt flour or flour combinations of your choice
- 4 tsp powdered White Stevia
- 2 scoops Nutrim powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp cinnamon (optional)
In LARGE BOWL combine wet ingredients with beaters:
- 4 large or 5 small very ripe bananas mashed – 2 cups
- ⅔ cup avocado oil
- ½ cup maple syrup (coat measuring cup with oil first)
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup water or almond milk (or alternative milk of your choice)
- While beating, wet ingredients, pour dry ingredients in a little at a time, mixing with electric beaters until well blended
Fold in:
- 2 cups chopped walnuts (or nuts of your choice)
- 1 cup craisins or raisins
- Pour into the prepared 4.5” x 8.5” loaf pan, set on an air bake cookie sheet in preheated oven and bake at 350º for 50 - 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Remove and place on cooling rack.
- Cool for 30 minutes in the pan, then remove from pan and cool on a cooling rack.
- Once the loaf is fully cooled, use a serrated knife to slice it. Wrap in waxed paper and store in a plastic bag in refrigerator. Freezes well.
Notes
The variations here are endless. I have not yet tried substituting pumpkin puree for the bananas but that might work. Could also add blueberries to recipe without using cinnamon. Experiment and have fun!
