{clean} Whole Wheat Banana Bread

It's almost school time! With that being said, I will need something that's quick and nutritious in the morning to feed the kids before sending them on their merry way. I have found that making muffins or bread is a great way to get protein and fiber and keep my kids feeling full longer. My kids LOVED this banana bread!  

This banana bread has no added processed sugar, just honey. That in itself is awesome! I use WHITE whole wheat in all my recipes now that call for whole wheat. It tastes way closer to white flour than the brown.

{clean} Whole Wheat Banana Bread


Ingredients:

WET
  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup organic extra virgin coconut oil, melted (I use Barlean's brand)
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tsp all natural pure vanilla
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
DRY
  • 2 1/4 cups white whole wheat flour (I use Bronze Chief brand, I find at Wal-mart)
  • 3/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 3 Tbps ground flaxseed
Directions:

1)  Preheat oven to 350.
2)  Mix wet together in a bowl.
3)  Mix dry together in a different bowl.
4)  Combine the two into one bowl. Do not overmix.
5)  Pour mixture into a greased loaf pan.
6)  Bake at 350 for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

ENJOY!
