Ingredients

  • 3 super ripe, medium bananas
  • 2 flax eggs (2 Tbsp flax seed + 5 Tbsp water)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup avocado oil (or melted coconut oil)
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
  • 2 cups oat flour
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries, save some for topping
  • 1 Tbsp oats, to sprinkle on top (optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 8x4 loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, make the flax eggs by combing the ground flaxseed and water. Stir and set aside for 5 minutes to thicken.
  • In a medium bowl, add the oat flour, almond flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk until combined.
  • In the bowl with the flax eggs, mash the ripe bananas. Then add the vanilla, oil, maple syrup, and apple cider vinegar. Whisk until well combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients into the bowl with the wet. Stir with a spatula until just combined. Don’t overmix! Fold in blueberries. 
  • Pour batter into the lined pan. Top with more blueberries and sprinkle some oats on top (optional).
  • Bake for 65-70 minutes, or until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Since it is a denser loaf, this needs a longer bake time. Let it cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Then transfer bread to a cooling rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
