Light Banana Bread
This Light Banana Bread is not only a comforting, delicious treat, but it’s also incredibly good for your gut and overall health. Bananas are the star of this recipe, offering a wide range of nutritional benefits. Their natural antacid properties help soothe the stomach and may protect against ulcers by activating cells that reinforce the stomach lining and reducing ulcer-causing bacteria.
Rich in potassium, bananas support hormonal balance, nerve function, muscle contraction, and blood pressure regulation. They also provide both fast-acting glucose and slow-release fructose, making them an ideal energy-boosting food.
Bananas are high in fiber, promoting regular digestion and feeding the beneficial bacteria in your gut through their prebiotic compounds. When combined with gut-supportive ingredients like almond flour, rich in phytonutrients that help beneficial microbes thrive—this banana bread becomes more than just a snack; it’s a healing food.
If you need a nut-free version, almond flour can be easily replaced with quinoa flour.
However you make it, Light Banana Bread remains a simple and delicious way to nourish your gut, reduce chronic inflammation, and support long-term health. It’s a perfect addition to an anti-inflammatory lifestyle—one that embraces healing through real, whole foods.
Enjoy every bite knowing you’re doing something wonderful for your body from the inside out.

You can ground blanched or unblanched almonds in a food processor or look for ground almonds or almonds meal in your local supermarket.

Hello, ground almonds flour can be made at home by grinding regular almonds with peels? If not what is the recipes please?

You can replace it with quinoa flour. 200g or 2 cups of almond flour can be replaced with 120g or 2 cups of quinoa flour.

Hi, Is there an alternative to ground almonds? My son has a nut allergy. Thanks Una

It would make the consistency a bit more runnier if you were to do like for like. Try reducing the amount of maple syrup to 20g instead of 30g.

can maple syrup be substituted for coconut sugar

We use coconut sugar as is has a lower glycemic index. Using another sweetener would have the same texture as coconut sugar so the banana bread would come out differently. You could try replacing with stevia and maybe increasing the amount of ground almonds for texture but that has not been tested so its just an idea.
