Gluten-free banana bread
Background
This dairy-free and gluten-free banana bread is perfect for those who have dairy and/or gluten intolerance and for the health-conscious. I've added ¼ tsp xanthan gum to the mixture but I don't think it's necessary. If you use very ripe bananas, you can reduce the sugar to 50g, as the bananas and the sultanas provide plenty of Β sweetness. This cake is ideal for breakfast, a mid-day snack or afternoon tea - also for your school/work lunch-box.
Ingredients
- 150 ml oaty milk
- 75g gluten-free oats
- 100g sultanas
- 100g dairy-free margarine/spread
- 2 ripe bananas
- 50g gluten-free, self-raising flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp mixed spice
- 3 eggs
- 75g unrefined sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease and line a loaf tin.
- Melt the margarine and let it cool.
- Mash the bananas in a small bowl.
- In another bowl mix the oaty milk, oats and sultanas together.
- Sift together the flour, cinnamon, mixed spice and baking powder in a large bowl.
- In another bowl whisk the sugar and eggs until creamy, then add this to the flour mixture. Stir, then add the bananas and the soaked oats and sultanas.
- Transfer the batter into the tin, allowing to spread out evenly.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, until an inserted skewer comes out clean.
- When the cake is ready, take it out of the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes in the tin, then transfer it to a wire rack.
- Let it cool completely, then slice.
