Okay, so at first glance many people might think that if you take out the sugar and the flour, you are also taking out the flavour - that is not the case with this recipe! We have been trying to be healthy, but who doesn't want something yummy for dessert?! This recipe is moist, flavourful, and packed with protein because the base is ground almonds. I liked it so much I plan to try making it with pumpkin in place of the banana!
Banana Bread
3 eggs, separated
5 tbsp honey
4 tbsp olive oil
2 mashed bananas (I used the food processor to blend them)
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 cups finely grounded almonds
3 eggs, separated
5 tbsp honey
4 tbsp olive oil
2 mashed bananas (I used the food processor to blend them)
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 cups finely grounded almonds
Preheat the oven to 350.
Cream the egg yolks and honey in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
Add the oil, vanilla, mashed banana, cinnamon, baking powder and ground almonds and combine well.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Fold egg whites into the banana mixture to pull it away from the sides before gradually folding the rest of the egg whites into the mixture.
Grease a large loaf pan and spread the batter in it.
