Ingredients

• 3 medium overripe bananas
• 1.5 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups almond flour
• 0.75 cups granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups light brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 0.5 cups chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the overripe bananas until smooth. Set them aside for a moment.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.

Step 4

To the mashed bananas, add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix well until all the wet ingredients are fully combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

If desired, fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans for added texture and flavor.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and use a spatula to smooth the top.

Step 8

Bake the banana bread in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the banana bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Slice and enjoy your gluten-free Starbucks-style banana bread! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
