Farmer Banana Bread
1213/02/2012 by Farmer K's Kitchen
The gluten-free paleo bread that I usually make has been so popular and loved by all who taste. Some of the feedback I’ve had is that the bread would also taste great as a banana bread cause the texture is so similar. This feedback has mainly been from Kirk’s side of the family. Kirk’s sister makes a banana bread that will make you wanna do the crazy dance: yep, that good!
With some of Kirk’s family coming to stay with us for a few days, I figured now is as good a time to convert the Paleo Bread into a banana bread genius. I picked up some sweet-az lady finger bananas from the Farmers Market and I decided to give it a whirl.
You can use any bananas, but the lady finger variety are sweeter. Try not use bananas that have gone too brown as the flavour can be way too strong! The bananas I used had just a few little brown patches on the outside.
Farmer Banana Bread
- 1 ½ cups (180g) almond flour
- 2 Tbs (20g) coconut flour
- ¼ cup (40g) flaxseed/linseed meal
- 60g honey
- 1 Tbs organic ground cinnamon
- 3 lady finger bananas (you could even toss one more in if you like)!
- ¼ tsp celtic sea salt
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 5 eggs
- 60g coconut oil
- Place all the ingredients into the Thermomix/food processor and mix.
- Pour batter into a greased loaf baking tin (I use a light spray of coconut oil to grease or you can use butter)
- Bake at 180° for 30 minutes
Serve it warm with a spread of butter that melts through the bread so it goes all soggy and heavenly. Kirk’s brother suggests a sprinkle of nutmeg on top of any banana bread is lovely too.
Can’t get much easier than that!
Looks delish…looking forward to giving this one a go!!
Great texture and still moist. You guys will love it! Would be really nice with a smear of crunchy peanut butter on it too
My goodness! I am wiping the drool off of my chin…
It is very drool-worthy
Love a good banana bread!! Might be good with a bit of pumpkin and allspice too!
Fantastic idea Shara! That’ll be on the list for next time.

Farmer K,
You seem to do a lot of cooking with Almond Flour and Coconut flour. The two recipes I am interested in is this one and your ANZAC Biccie recipe. Where do you buy your flours? I have found there is a health food store in Darwin and so I will have a look there but if unavailable, can you recommend an on-line store for such items?
Thank you for your lovely comment by the way!
DDD
needed something sweet to eat while watching the voice – so giving this one a go tonight.
Perfect winter snack….served warm with melted butter…..*tummy rumbling*
Great recipe, I’ve made this a few times now and it turns out fab every time! I have made it with organic grass fed butter as well and it is delicious.
Thanks
Hi Sue – thanks for your comment and I am so glad that you are enjoying the banana bread! Sounds heavenly with the grassfed butter – my mouth is watering!
