Banana bread is classic comfort food, but have you ever thought about using almond flour and oatmeal flour for a healthier twist on the recipe?
Banana bread made with almond and oatmeal flour is a delicious and healthy twist on the classic recipe. The addition of almond flour gives the banana bread a rich, buttery flavor and a moist texture, while the oatmeal flour adds nice chewiness and a boost of fiber. Ripe bananas give it a natural sweetness and a moist texture with warm spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg. It’s usually sweetened with brown sugar, which makes it a rich caramelized flavor and a nice golden brown color. Banana bread is typically baked in a loaf pan and has a beautiful, rustic appearance. Banana bread is perfect for breakfast or a snack and a great way to use up overripe bananas.
