I am a banana bread freak. I hope I’m not the only one out there… Anyways, I was in the mood for some banana bread but wanted to make it healthier than I normally would make it. My husband does not eat banana bread (mainly because I put chocolate chips in it) so I knew I could experiment with the recipe I normally use.
1. Mix ground flaxseed with water in a small bowl. (I buy normal flaxseed and grind it at home.) As you stir, the flaxseed and water will turn doughy. Set aside.
2. Combine dry ingredients (flour, chia seeds, cinnamon, baking power, baking soda, salt ) and stir.
3. Mash up the bananas and then add them, honey, the flaxseed mixture, and the chocolate chips and pecan pieces to the dry ingredients.
4. Pour gooey goodness into a bread loaf pan (I use a baking stone).
5. Bake for 55-60 minutes. You will know when the bread is down when you can stick tooth pick in the middle and it comes out clean.
Made this today. So yummy and filling! Thanks for the recipe!
I’m glad you enjoy it! I actually made some last night as well… I am addicted to it!
