Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups mashed overripe bananas about 3 large bananas
- 2 eggs
- ¼ cup melted coconut oil
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup coconut sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- ¼ cup tapioca starch
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C) and grease a loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, mash bananas and mix in eggs, coconut oil, maple syrup, coconut sugar, and vanilla.
- Stir in almond flour, tapioca starch, baking soda, salt, apple cider vinegar, and almond milk. Mix until just combined.
- Fold in optional add-ins like chocolate chips or nuts if using.
- Let the batter rest for 10 minutes.
- Pour into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 60–70 minutes, tenting with foil halfway through to prevent over-browning.
- Test with a toothpick; it should come out with moist crumbs.

Notes
Use deeply ripened bananas with brown spots for best flavor and moisture. Resting the batter before baking allows the gluten-free flours to hydrate for a better crumb.
