Ingredients

  • ½ cup organic coconut flour, sifted
  • 3 tablespoons coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon organic cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon organic ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon organic nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon organic cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon organic cardamom
  • ¾ teaspoon aluminum-free baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ⅓ teaspoon fine Himalayan pink salt
  • 4 large very ripe bananas, mashed
  • ½ cup almond butter*
  • 3 large organic eggs
  • 3 tablespoons organic coconut oil, just melted (not hot, just warm)
  • 1 tablespoon organic vanilla

*Note: We used Solstice Canyon cardamom and clove almond butter, which adds additional chai spices to the flavor of the bread. If making with plain almond butter, adjust ground spices to taste.

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a silicone loaf pan with coconut oil cooking spray.

2. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together all dry ingredients: coconut flour, baking soda, baking powder, coconut sugar, spices, and salt.

3. In a large mixing bowl, mix together the mashed banana, almond butter, eggs, coconut oil, and vanilla.

4. Add dry ingredients into wet ingredients gradually, mixing with a hand mixer with whisk attachment, and scraping down the sides of the bowl after every addition. Mix until well combined, but don't over-mix.

5. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan. Place loaf pan on a baking sheet and bake for 50 to 55 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean and the loaf feels firm when gently squeezed from outside of the silicone loaf pan.

6. Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes before removing from the pan and setting on a cooling rack. Serve at room temperature or warm drizzled with almond butter and honey, coconut oil, or melted pastured butter. Enjoy!

Tip: Leftover Paleo breads are best kept refrigerated for up to 5 days or frozen in individual slices. You can toast slices to reheat them, or leave them on the counter to come back to room temp.
