Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF (177ºC). Spray a 9" x 5" loaf pan with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a medium size bowl, whisk together the bananas, eggs, sugar, butter/oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Notes

  1. Almond flour: you may use almond flour or almond meal. You may also use pecan flour or pecan meal. Pulse in a food processor several times to make the smallest granules possible and sift if necessary.
