No - grain Chia Banana Bread!

I have made some pretty good banana bread.. really.. have you tried it? You should. 
Then I made it again. I sort of have a problem.. you see, I hardly ever use the same recipe again. I know. Even it was good the first time I make it better the 2nd, 3rd and then the 4th time. 






..Banana Chia Bread..




This banana bread is different because I didn't use any flour, or butter, or sugar. 
 But I used 



  • 4 eggs
  • 2 Large Bananas (or 3 small)
  • 3/4 C. Coconut flour
  • 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/4c Coconut oil melted
  • 1/2tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbs Cinnamon
  • 3 tbs Agave Nectar
  • 1/2 Cup of Chia seeds

Directions:



Blend eggs, bananas, agave, vanilla extract & coconut oil together




In a bowl mix coconut flour, baking powder, chia seeds and cinnamon




Combine the wet and dry ingredients 

Stir





Pour into glass baking dish and bake for 45 minutes. 




Then set broil on low for 5 minutes--watch it  close 


Remove and let cool for about ten minutes before transferring out of pan onto paper towel.--- did I mention I'm a little impatient?? I didn't wait.. and it fell apart.. no worries I put it back together..



Slice and Serve!
I got the final squirts of my agave on before I inhaled them.

No worries.. I got a picture of the last bite. 

Since I had dessert first.. Its time for dinner!


Since I admitted that I'm impatient.... I didn't take a picture of mine before I ate it.. so this was Brents.. oh & I don't like pasta. 

So go make that chia banana bread and let me know how you liked it! 

Off to hang out with the hubster and watch modern family on hulu. 

Do you watch modern family? If not you should. And laugh along with some banana bread :)

Goodnight Y'all.
