Gluten Free Banana Bread Recipe Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this easy gluten free banana bread recipe:
- Bananas, of course! They make this bread nice and moist, and they fill it with sweet banana flavor.
- Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free All-Purpose Baking Flour – I don’t bake with gluten-free flour blends often, so I polled readers to see what their favorites were. Bob’s All-Purpose blend was the clear winner. It contains simple, pronounceable ingredients (no xanthum gum here!), and it’s totally dairy-free. If you prefer a different flour blend for gluten-free baking, feel free to try it in this recipe. However, I can only guarantee the results with Bob’s Gluten Free All-Purpose Flour.
- Almond flour – Almond flour is one of my go-to baking ingredients, whether I’m making a gluten-free recipe or not. Like in my blueberry muffins, pumpkin bars, and regular banana bread, it gives this loaf an amazing moist texture.
- Baking powder and baking soda – To make it nice and puffy!
- Eggs – They add moisture and richness and help the bread rise.
- Coconut sugar or regular sugar – Coconut sugar sweetens this recipe naturally and adds extra depth of flavor, but if you don’t have it, don’t worry! Regular sugar works here too.
- Almond milk and extra-virgin olive oil – They add moisture and richness.
- Cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract – For warm depth of flavor.
- Walnuts – Who doesn’t love bananas + walnuts?? They give this gluten free banana bread a delicious nutty crunch.
- And sea salt – To make all the flavors pop!
