Ingredients

  • 3 large bananas very ripe with brown spotting
  • cup maple syrup or liquid sweetener of choice
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil or liquid oil of choice
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 and ¾ cups oat flour*
  • 3and ½ tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9x5 loaf pan. An 8.5x4.5 loaf pan works too.
  • Add (in this order) the bananas, maple syrup, olive oil, eggs, and vanilla extract to a high-speed blender. Blend on high for 15 seconds or until smooth.
  • Add the oat flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Blend on low for 5 seconds and then on high for 10 seconds or until just incorporated. Do not over-mix. Be sure to scrape down the sides of the blender with a spatula.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (or with a few moist crumbs). Check the bread at 40 minutes, and if it's browning too much on the top, you can cover it with aluminum foil and continue baking.
  • Allow your banana bread to cool for 15 minutes before transferring it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • Oat Flour–  Oat flour is sold in stores, but it's also super easy to make at home. Simply blend old-fashioned oats in a high-speed blender until the oats become a fine powder (about 30 seconds to a minute). Store your oat flour in an air-tight container for up to three months. 
  • Store your banana bread covered in a sealed container at room temperature for up to four days.
