Vegan Gluten free Banana Bread. Grain-free Carrot Banana Bread

What do you do when you want both a banana bread and carrot bread, You make Carrot Banana Bread!

I was playing around with my gluten-free fruit cake recipe for a no grain version banana bread. Too many Bananas can tend to make gummy results with a bit of error easily. Addition of some other fruit for additional moisture helps reduce that and also adds great flavor, moisture and texture to the bread. For with gluten(regular flour) version make my 1 Bowl Banana Apple Bread with shredded carrots and spices of choice.

This bread uses almond flour and coconut as the base. This Carrot Banana Bread is moist and textured with flavors from banana, carrot, spices and vanilla and great to snack on. To make it into a banana cake, add a cashew cinnamon frosting like my carrot cake.

This bread is soft, super moist, delicious and comforting. Let me know if you try it!

I haven’t tried it without almonds. If you do make it with other nut flour or sunflower seed flour, let me know how it turns out.

Since I discovered how well citric acid does in gluten-free baking I’ve been using it more and more. This bread uses only a bit which can be omitted. It seems to also prolong the shelf life of the baked result as they dont taste stale as quickly.
