Introduction
This banana bread is naturally sweet and made without refined sugars, making it a great option for those seeking a healthier treat. The bananas are great for your gut health while the walnuts and almonds provide anti-inflammatory benefits for your full body – it’s both delicious and nutritious. Perfect for a quick snack or breakfast on the go!
Method
Step 1. Pre-heat the oven to 175 degrees (fan assisted).
Step 2. Put all in a blender or food processor apart from the chopped 1/3 walnuts which you’ll need for step 3.
Step 3. Line a loaf tin and add the batter from the blender or food processor, top with the chopped walnuts.
Step 4. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a knife comes out clean.
Chef Gino’s Top Tip: The riper the banana, the sweeter the bread. Put bananas that are on the turn in the freezer and pull them out when you want to make a loaf. They will go black - don’t worry.
