My delicious gluten-free banana bread.

 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!
