Gluten Free Banana Bread

Combine in a large bowl:

3 ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup puree)
1/3 cup light olive oil
2/3 c erythritol
2 teaspoons bourbon vanilla extract
1/3 c almond milk

Whisk together in a separate bowl:

1 1/2 cups gluten-free flour blend or gluten-free baking mix*
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon arrowroot starch
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
1 rounded teaspoon cinnamon
2 tbl cocoa powder
freshly grated nutmeg to taste

Add the dry ingredients into the banana mixture and stir until smooth. If the batter looks too thin and wet, add more gluten-free flour, a tablespoon at a time, to thicken the batter.


Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan sprayed with olive oil and dusted with cinnamon/truvia blend and bake in the center of a preheated oven for an hour, until the loaf is firm, a bit crusty, and a wooden pick inserted into the center emerges clean.
