My Favorite Gluten Free Banana Bread I Have Made So Far

   My Favorite Gluten Free Banana Bread I Have Made So Far


         I have made some yummy banana bread before, and I've gotten a fair knack of replacing the wheat in a recipe, but this one is my all time favorite, so far.  Moist, fresh, and doesn't 'taste' gluten free.


























1 Cup Ground White Buckwheat Flour (you know this is one of my favorite gf ingredients)
1/3 Cup Almond Flour not quite full, add some Brown Rice Flour to top it off. (I buy this and keep a small 1 lb package in the freezer)
3/4 tsp baking powder 
3/4 tsp baking soda 
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 ripe bananas peeled and cut into small pieces
2 eggs 
2/3 cup granulated sugar ( I used a healthier sugar)
1/3 cup plain yogurt ( I used full fat yogurt)
2 1/2tbsp unsalted butter (can replace with non dairy)
2 1/2 tbsp vanilla 
1/4 cup walnuts (optional)


Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.  Lightly spray your loaf pan, I used the longer version, seen above, and love how it heated it through, perfectly. It is a Norpro and it is approx 11.5" x 4.5".
Insert metal blade of your processor, pulse to combine the flour, baking powder and soda, salt, and nuts, about 5 times. You can use a 5x9.
Reserve in bowl.
Process banana until pureed, about 30 seconds. Scrape work bowl and process another 10 seconds. Add eggs, sugar, yogurt, butter and vanilla extract. Process until well combined, about 10-15 secs. Add dry ingredients. Pulse until flour is just mixed, about 5 to 6 times.
Pour into prepared pan. Bake until golden brown and toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 30 minutes. (50 approx for 5x 9 pan)

Why MAGNANIMOUS?

Noah Webster's 1828 Dictionary of the American Language defines Magnanimity as such:
MAGNANIM'ITY, n. [L. magnanimitas; magnus, great, and animus, mind.] Greatness of mind; that elevation or dignity of soul, which encounters danger and trouble with tranquillity and firmness, which raises the possessor above revenge, and makes him delight in acts of benevolence, which makes him disdain injustice and meanness, and prompts him to sacrifice personal ease, interest and safety for the accomplishment of useful and noble objects.
