Banana Carrot Walnut Bread (GF/DF/V)

• 3 large ripe bananas

• 3 Tbsp melted coconut oil OR olive oil

• 2 Tbsp applesauce

• 1/4 C coconut palm sugar

• 1-2 Tbsp maple syrup*

• 1 Tbsp ground flaxseed

• 3 tsp baking powder

• 3/4 tsp cinnamon

• 3/4 C unsweetened non-dairy milk (coconut, almond, flax)

• 1/4 tsp sea salt

• 1/4-1/2 C grated carrot

• 1 1/4 C GF oats

• 1 C GF all purpose flour

• 1 1/4 C almond flour

• 1/4-1/2 C walnuts

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-inch loaf pan with parchment.

In a large bowl, mash the banana. In the same bowl, add the remaining ingredients EXCEPT flour, oats & walnuts - mix well. Next, mix in the oats & flours. When combined, pour the mixture into the parchment-lined baking dish. Top with walnuts.

Bake for 1-hour to 1 hour 10 minutes. The bread is ready when it’s golden brown on top, firm, and a bit cracked. (If the walnuts begin to brown around 1-hour, cover lightly with parchment, and return to oven.)

Cool completely before removing from the pan. Slice, serve, and ENJOY! Best to keep refrigerated and consume within 1-2 days.

*Amount of maple syrup will depend on your preference of sweetness. If your bananas are very ripe & sweet, you may desire less.
