Classic Banana Bread

Uncategorised

18 Jun

I wanted to share my The BEST Banana Bread. You’ll notice it is egg and dairy free (a-hem! VEGAN) but I swear that you will not notice the difference.  The two versions of the recipe also avoids using refined sugars and although it recommends whole wheat flour (which is great!) I prefer to use low-gluten or gluten-free flours.  Rice flour may not be the best pick but any alternative flour should do such Kamut, Quinoa, Buckwheat, Chickpea or a combo.

Enjoy!

Classic Banana Bread

Ingredients
1/2 cup 100% pure Maple syrup
1/2 cup Coconut Oil or Vegan Butter
Egg substitute for 2 eggs (2 tablespoons ground flax seed and 6 tablespoons of water, mixed)
1 teaspoons vanilla extract
3-4 very ripe bananas, smashed
2 cups gluten free or low gluten flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
Chopped nuts (as many as you like)
Raisins (as many as you like)

Directions
Mix ingredients in a bowl in the order given.
Pour into a greased loaf pan.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 50-60 minutes.

If someone had told in my 30’s that strength train If someone had told in my 30’s that strength training was the fountain of youth, I would have laughed my signature *big laugh*.

While Strength training can temporarily increase growth hormone and other anabolic signals —  the real anti-aging win is maintaining muscle, bone and physical function as you get older.

This time next year, I’ll be turning 5-0. And while I’ve never felt better, I’m even more motivated to become an even stronger (and hotter) version of myself.

Fibre is one of those unsexy nutrition basics that Fibre is one of those unsexy nutrition basics that becomes especially worth paying attention to in perimenopause.

It supports gut health, regularity, blood sugar management, cholesterol levels and satiety — and most of us could use more of it.

Think: berries, vegetables, beans, lentils, whole grains, chia, flax and psyllium.

Aim for roughly 25–30+ g a day and increase gradually alongside plenty of fluids.

Your future self may thank you. Plus, your 💩 like a queen 😉
