Servings: 1 loaf
Ingredients
- ½ cup 8 Tbs. butter or non-dairy alternative (Earth Balance® Buttery Sticks)
- 3/4 cup - 1 cup granulated sugar may use less, to taste
- 2 eggs + 1 egg white or favorite non-fruit egg substitute
- ½ cup buttermilk or ½ cup minus 1 Tbs. non-dairy milk plus 1 Tbs. lemon juice
- 1/2 cup mashed banana = approximately 1 banana
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups 210 grams gfJules® Gluten Free Multigrain Biscuit & Breakfast Baking Flour
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ tsp baking soda
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F or 325° F convection.
- Oil and lightly flour with gfJules Flour one 8.5 x 4.4 loaf pan and one mini loaf pan or two muffin cups; or use one larger 9 inch loaf pan.
- In a medium mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar, whipping until light and fluffy. Add eggs and blend until integrated.
- If making non-dairy buttermilk, add 1 tablespoon lemon juice to a liquid measuring cup, then add enough non-dairy milk to total 1/2 cup. Allow the mixture to stand while mashing and measuring the banana.
- Mash one large, ripe banana and measure to be sure it equals 1/2 cup, but no more. Add part of another banana if necessary.*
- In a separate bowl, whisk together gfJules Multigrain Breakfast Baking Flour, salt and baking soda.
- Add mashed banana and vanilla extract to the sugar mixture, then add buttermilk alternately with flour mixture and mix well, beating one minute after blended. Stir in nuts, if using.
- Pour batter into the loaf pans, filling 2/3 full; add remaining batter to mini loaf pan or muffin tins.
- Bake large loaf for 60-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean; bake mini loaf pans 30 minutes; bake muffins 20 minutes. The bread will be lightly browned and should spring back to the touch.
- Remove to cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then run a butter knife around the inside of the loaf pans and invert gently to remove the bread.
- *gfJules’ Note: In quick bread recipes, it’s important not to add too much fruit, as it can make the bread too dense and heavy and can cause it to remain un-cooked in the middle.
