With any special diet, adaptations have to be made when it comes to cooking and enjoying your favorite dishes.

This recipes also falls under:

• grain-free

• paleo diet or
• gluten-free lifeystyle

Let's face it, there is just a limit to what you can do with everyday recipes that include grain, and gluten. But, that for me is a challenge and I love a challenge!

That is where this banana bread came from. I love banana bread and I love to smell if baking.

Is this healthy?

Healthy eating is important to nourish our bodies so it has the building blocks it needs for general health.

So, to answer the question, yes, it's healthy!

This gluten-free banana bread recipe is sweetened with honey and I like to use raw honey for its enzymes and other health benefits.

Almond flour is low in carbs and packed with vitamins. This is quite different and better from the traditional banana bread that has lots of saturated fats and sugar.

Top tips

Here are my top tips for making this recipe:

• Get the best taste and texture by using only very ripe bananas. You'll want a soft and flavored filled bread, and it's only those black speckled bananas that can give it to you. So, start saving up your leftover bananas.
• Have frozen bananas saved in the freezer? You need to thaw them before mashing. Thawing frozen banana before mashing makes the mashing process easier.
• Blend the batter just until smooth. Under mixing or over mixing can cause a banana bread bad day.

Are nuts optional?

Yes, but they definitely add a little something extra!

They make it crunchy and add flavor. You can even sprinkle them on top for a bit of garnish.

Not a fan of nuts or are allergic? No problem, just leave them out!

Cooking time

This is an easy bread to make and can be mixed in one bowl. I call these types of recipes a one bowl wonder!

It only takes about 5 mins to mix it all up and then the hard part - impatiently waiting for 1 hour while it bakes.
