   Gosh, I'm having a hum-dinger of a time writing some sort of "intro" here......this happens from time to time, and when it does I like to resort to "what would my kids do?" 
   "Hey, excuse me.....hey...Excuse me.....excuse me....hey, excuse me.....Um, look at my banana bread....." O.k, so none of them would say "look at my 'banana bread', but I hear "look at this (fill-in-the-blank)" all day from my sweet Keziah, so that oughtta do it here!  :)

Paleo Banana Bread

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup almond flour (meal)
  • 1/2 cup coconut flour 
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup melted coconut oil (melt it first, then measure)
  • 1/4 cup honey and/or maple syrup
  • 4 large eggs, whisked
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup well-mashed super-ripe banana (2-3 black skinned bananas)
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, or pecans

Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan. Line with parchment paper, leaving "handles" over the long sides.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the 2 flours, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. 

  3. In another large bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, honey (and/or maple syrup), eggs, and vanilla extract. Then whisk in the mashed banana.

  4. Stir wet ingredients into the dry and stir until fully combined. Fold in chopped nuts.

  5. Evenly spread the thick batter into prepared loaf pan. 

  6. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a knife or skewer inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

  7. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes. Lift the bread from the pan using your "handles" and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

   I like to let this bread cool, then cut it into slices, wrap up and put into a freezer bag, and stick it in the freezer. Then when I want some, I can just pull out one piece, put it onto a plate (covered with wrap), and let it thaw out (doesn't take too long). I've also taken out one piece from the freezer, stuck it into a plastic container, and packed it into lunches/snacks for myself or the kids as needed. By the time we get to eating it, it's no longer frozen. 
   Well now, I hope everyone has a good weekend! I plan on baking (obviously!), going out for dinner, and having the in-laws over, so, it'll be a busy and fun weekend!
