The best part about this banana bread (other than the chocolate) is the fact that it's made with honey and NO white sugar!!! It's a delicious dessert you won't feel guilty eating or feeding to your family. Score 1 for mom! I found the original recipe on a blog I'm having trouble getting to lately so no link to the original but I made a few changes (including getting rid of the white sugar) and this is what I've come up with. I make it with teff flour (super delicious and super healthy) but you can sub a different gluten free flour if that's what you have.
2/3 c. brown rice flour
1/3 c. tapioca starch
1 c. teff flour
1 t. baking soda
1/2 t. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
6 T. cocoa powder
2 t. cinnamon
2 eggs
1/4 c. applesauce
1/4 c. light tasting olive oil (or any light tasting oil)
1 t. vanilla extract
3 overly ripe banana's mashed
2/3 c. honey (raw, local preferred)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a large loaf pan and set aside. In a medium bowl mix together all the dry ingredients. In another medium to large size bowl, lightly beat the 2 eggs. Add in the remaining wet ingredients and mix well. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet 1/2 at a time. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 1 hour. After cooling for about 10 minutes transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and enjoy!
