Sometimes we go through bananas really quickly in my house, and sometimes they get forgotten and so I end up with 7 bananas overripe at one time. Banana bread is the perfect thing to make with overripe bananas, but most banana bread recipes just call for 2 or maximum 3 overripe bananas; this recipe is for when you have a whole banana graveyard in your house.
The first time I made this recipe I cooked it too long and it ended up dry, but the next time I ended up with 7 overripe bananas and I made it again, I cooked it for half the time and it ended up perfectly textured, moist and delicious.
This recipe is gluten free, refined sugar free, and easy to make, and I highly recommend it if you ever end up with too many overripe bananas in your house.
Ingredients
- 7 overripe bananas, the more overripe the better
- 3/4 cup mildly flavored oil of choice
- 3/4 cup date syrup (probably would work well with any other liquid sugars like honey, jaggery syrup or maple syrup but only tried it with date syrup)
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cup rice flour
- 1 1/2 cup potato starch
- 2 teaspoons xanthan gum
Instructions
- Mash your bananas until as smooth as possible.
- Add the oil, date syrup and eggs and mix well.
- Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well until there are no clumps.
- Pour into a 9×13 pan.
- Bake at 350 for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Enjoy!
