Hippy Banana Bread

I made our favourite banana bread within the midst of the vacation break and it didn’t closing a full 24 hours in our residence. We plowed by means of it in a short while and I think about it’s kinda delicate and fluffy so it’s very simple to endure. There’s nothing to sluggish you down. There’s no lingering. It’s merely an EAT BANANA BREAD NOW after which lower one totally different sliver till you uncover there’s none left kind of state of affairs.

So I put my pondering cap on and made what I need to name Hippy Banana Bread. I want a banana bread with chunk!  I want one issue hearty, one issue barely dense. One issue with texture and chunk!

This banana bread lasted bigger than 24 hours in our residence.  It’s been my breakfast for the sooner week and I looooooooove it.  What makes it “hippy?”  All the seeds (sunflower seeds & pumpkin seeds!), walnuts and dried cherries (that plump up after baking!).

Chances are you’ll end up trying to find further bananas every week for this recipe. I’m already gathering parts for my subsequent loaf…

Let’s accumulate our parts.

Dry parts! We use some almond flour on this one. I think about the next batch I’m gonna experiment and put additional in and fewer all-purpose flour.

Bananas are mashed.

We add your entire liquids + sugar to the bananas. MIX.

Dry meets moist.

Hiya goodness.

I spray a loaf pan with some cooking spray and line it with parchment.

Solely a bit parchment so I can pull the bread out simpler.

In goes the batter.

Hey batter batter.

BAKED!

Look inside.

Try all of these nuts and seeds!

It’s my morning/afternoon gasoline.

And it’s shortly to be yours too!
