Ingredients

Wet

  • 1 ¼ cups banana puree from about 3 ripe bananas
  • ½ cup granulated sugar see notes
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ cup greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup butter or coconut oil melted
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice

Dry

  • 2 cups gluten free all purpose baking flour
  • 1 tablespoon tapioca starch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups blueberries + 1 tablespoon flour

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Line an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 or 9 x 5 loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Add your bananas to a blender and blend until smooth. Alternatively, you can just mash them, but I find the texture of the bread is much smoother when you puree them.
  • Measure out 1 1/4 cups and add to a mixing bowl.
  • Whisk in all wet ingredients until smooth.
  • Add in the flour (making sure to spoon and level), tapioca, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
  • Whisk until smooth.
  • In a small dish, toss the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of flour.
  • Add the berries to a bowl and fold to combine.
  • Transfer to your prepared loaf pan and top with additional blueberries and sprinkle of sugar if desired.
  • Bake for 55-65 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Let cool in the pan for about 20 minutes, then carefully lift onto a wire rack to finish cooling completely.
  • Ideally, let the bread cool for 2 hours before slicing to ensure the structure has time to set.
  • Once cool, slice and enjoy!

Notes

I used regular white sugar, but you can use coconut, light brown etc. Just keep in mind that the darker the sugar the darker the loaf will be!
