  • Number of Servings: 12
Ingredients
To start, I use Bette Hagmans gluten free flour mix. I keep a large amount in a container on hand for baking. Here is the smaller recipe:2 cups white rice flour2/3 cup potato starch flour1/3 cup tapioca flour (or starch)For this recipe you will need:1 1/2 cup of Bette Hagman's Gluten Free Flour mix1/4 cup of corn starchRoughly 1/2 tbls coconut flour1 1/2 teaspoons of xanthum gum1/2 c of shortening2 eggs, beaten1 tsp baking soda1 tsp vanillaPinch of salt1 cup sugar3 very ripe bananasNote: Xanthum gum can be found at some grocery stores, Whole Foods or Amazon. It's very important in gluten free baking because it helps hold the ingredients together
Directions
Mash bananas and leave a room temperature until brown and juicy

Preheat oven to 375

Sift dry ingredients together

Mix sugar and shortening together, then add eggs and vanilla. Add bananas alternately with sifted dry ingredients.

Bake 45 minutes to an hour in loaf pan or in cupcake pan (takes approx 20-30 minutes or so in cupcake pan)

In my experience, it comes out better in a cupcake pan and if you have trouble with burning, lower the oven temperature by 10 degrees.

Enjoy!
