  • Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
  • Yield: Approximately 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 3 medium overripe bananas, mashed
  • 1 teaspoon almond extract (or vanilla extract)
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and spray a bread pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the gluten-free flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together granulated sugar, eggs, canola oil, almond extract, and mashed bananas until smooth.
  4. Gradually pour the dry ingredients into the wet mixture and stir gently until just combined; it's okay if there are some lumps.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips carefully to avoid over-mixing.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared bread pan and optionally sprinkle additional chocolate chips on top.
  7. Bake at 425°F for 8 minutes; then reduce temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 50-60 minutes or until a knife inserted comes out clean.
