MmMmMmMmmm how I LOVE BANANA BREAD! I doubled this recipe and made 2 loaves; one with basic bananas, and the other I added walnuts and raisins. Both are made with all natural, organic, almond flour so they are gluten free and Paleo friendly. Additionaly, my high protein banana bread packs 15g of protein per slice! WOAH! This recipe is incredibly easy and delicious. Simple and sweet! Great for breakfast, as a snack, pre-workout, post-workout, with dinner or as dessert! You really can't go wrong :) Enjoy my friends!
