Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
2 cups blanched almond flour
3 tablespoons coconut flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Wet Ingredients
1/3 cup butter (sub ghee or coconut oil for fully dairy-free)
3 tablespoons maple sugar
3 mashed bananas
3 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup chopped walnuts
1/3 cup dark chocolate chunks
Directions
Pre-heat oven to 350 °F and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
In a small saucepan, heat butter over medium heat until it turns a toasty brown color, about 3-5 minutes. Swirl the pan occasionally to make sure the butter cooks evenly. Once brown, take off heat and pour into a heat-proof bowl to let cool until ready to use.
In a medium mixing bowl, stir together dry ingredients.
n a separate medium mixing bowl, mash the bananas. Add in the rest of the wet ingredients, including the brown butter when done. Make sure to stir until the eggs turn frothy.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix until just combined. Mix in walnuts and chocolate chips and pour the batter into the loaf pan lined with parchment paper. Smooth the top with a spatula and add any additional chocolate chips if desired.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean!
Recipe Notes
Freeze for up to 3 months!
If you can't tolerate butter, simply sub ghee or coconut oil.
