Cinnamon sugar banana bread






The crunchy-sweet topping really did it for me!


Made with green banana flour instead of grains, which makes it naturally gluten-free & high in resistant starch, which improves gut health and helps stabilize blood sugar so you’re not experiencing high spikes from a nice sweet comfort food. The protein powder helps with this too! Green banana flour is also a great prebiotic fiber.

TO MAKE

In a blender, add:
3 large ripe bananas
1/3 cup organic grass fed ghee
2 pasture raised eggs
2/3 cup pure maple syrup
1 t of vanilla

-blend until smooth.

In a bowl, mix:
3/4 cup green banana flour
1/2 cup vanilla bean protein powder (I used just ingredients)
1 t each of sea salt, baking powder, and cinnamon

Add the wet mixture to the dry and fold until uniform. Transfer batter to a greased + lined loaf pan and top with the cinnamon sugar mixture (1/2 cup granulated date or coconut sugar + 4 t ground cinnamon). Bake @350°F for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Slice, add a little ghee to the top and eat while it’s warm.
