Banana Bread

This recipe came from my friend Hayley Kirkland.  Almost her entire family has Celiac Disease and they have a family cookbook.  I have loved this banana bread recipe.  It is better than the ones I've had that use gluten.  You can add chocolate chips (like I did) or just banana.  This recipe will make one loaf.  In my pictures I doubled the recipe.

You Will Need:
1 1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas (I always use 3 bananas)
1/3 cup oil
2 eggs
2 cups rice flour (With this recipe I prefer brown rice flour)
3/4 cup brown sugar (pack it down)
1 teaspoon xanthan or guar gum
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon (I love cinnamon so I do more like 3 teaspoons haha)
1/4 teaspoon salt
chocolate chips (optional)

Step One: Preheat Oven to 350 degrees.
Step Two: Mix bananas, oil, and eggs.

Step Three: Add all other ingredients and combine.

Step Four: Pour into greased loaf pan.

Step Five: Bake for 60 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. (45 minutes for mini loaves.)
Step Six: Take out of pans and let cool.  I love to eat it while it's still warm.

Step Seven: Enjoy the aroma of bananas and cinnamon and eat!
