Mmm...Doesn't it look delicious?! Don't you just want some right now?
Well you are in luck because I am going to give you the recipe I used right now and you can make yourself some of this scruptious gluten-free goodness!
I just used a basic family banana bread recipe and substituted normal flour for gluten-free and then added a little xanthum gum to hold it together a little more. And I usually add a little applesauce so I don't have to use as much sugar and oil. Makes it a little healthier. :) So here's the recipe:
1 cup mashed bananas (2-3 medium sized ones)
3/4 cup applesauce
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup margarine
2 eggs...Mix all together, then add:
2 cups all-purpose gluten free flour
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp xanthum gum...mix salt, soda, and gum into the flour a little bit, then mix with all the wet ingredients.
Optional: you can also add 1 tsp of cinnamon for a little more flavor or any nuts or chocolate chips to give it a little extra.
Bake @ 350 degrees for 1 hour or @ 400 degrees for 10 minutes then turn down to 350 degrees for 20-30 minutes. Until you can stick a toothpick or knife in and it comes out clean. Enjoy!
Both my kids are gluten intolerant and since I am still breastfeeding, I must be gluten-free for them. They get horrible eczema type sores from it, my daughter especially, so we have to be very careful about what they eat. My daughter is also sensitive to corn and my son is allergic to peanuts, so as you can see it is challenging to make food that everyone can eat. This blog is just to show the good things I did find and maybe it can help some of you who may be dealing with the same.
