Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten-free flour baking blend (220g) (we use Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 or King Arthur Measure for Measure)*

  • ½ teaspoon baking soda 
  • ½ teaspoon fine salt 
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter (65 g) 
  • ½ cup coconut sugar (65 g) or brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 4 spotted ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 ½ cups or 350 g)
  • ¾ cup chocolate chips plus more for top

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 
  2. Spray a 9×5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray or line with parchment paper for easy removal. 
  3. In a large mixing bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. 
  4. Mix and set aside. 
  5. In a medium bowl cream together the butter, sugar, eggs and vanilla until creamy.
