GLUTEN FREE TROPICAL BANANA BREAD



Gluten Free Tropical Banana Bread image

A moist and delicious banana bread for those unable to eat wheat gluten. It's a variation on GinnyP's recipe #57225, which was pretty good, but lacked any type of flour. The coconut flour I've added in this version adds a little more depth to the flavor, as well as consistency in the batter. As with all gluten free breads, it's best when fresh, but by tightly wrapping the bread as soon as it cools, it stayed moist for several days.

Time 55m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 bananas, slightly over-ripe
1 egg
3/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup canola oil
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (I used my homemade gluten free vanilla, Homemade Vanilla)
1/2 cup potato starch
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup coconut flour
5 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Spray 9x4 loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In large bowl, with a hand mixer, mash bananas. Add egg, brown sugar, oil, milk and vanilla. Mix well.
  • In small bowl, sift together potato starch, cornstarch, coconut flour, baking powder, xanthan gum, baking soda, coriander and salt. (Sifting will better distribute the baking powder to avoid areas of bitterness.).
  • Pour batter into prepared loaf pan, smoothing as much as possible, to ensure a uniform top.
  • Bake for 40 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
  • Cool on wire rack for 5-10 minutes before removing from pan.
  • Slice and enjoy immediately. Wrap any leftovers tightly in plastic wrap to prevent drying out.

GLUTEN-FREE BANANA BREAD



Gluten-Free Banana Bread image

You may not even be able to tell that this super moist quick bread is gluten-free. A combo of flours made from brown rice and tapioca stands in for all-purpose flour.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 3h15m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for greasing the loaf pan
3/4 cup brown rice flour
1/2 cup tapioca flour
2/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
2 large eggs, separated
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3 very ripe bananas, mashed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom of a 9- by 5-inch loaf pan with parchment, and butter the bottom and sides.
  • Whisk together the rice and tapioca flours, 2/3 cup of the sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Whisk together the butter, egg yolks and vanilla in a large bowl. Fold in the mashed bananas.
  • Whip the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium-high speed in another large bowl until foamy. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon sugar, and continue to beat on medium-high until soft peaks form.
  • Fold the flour mixture into the banana mixture until just combined (it's OK if there are some lumps). Stir in 1/3 of the egg whites until combined, then gently fold in the rest. Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, and bake until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 55 minutes to 1 hour. Run a knife around the edges, and let cool completely in the pan on a rack. The bread can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas for the best flavor and texture. Overripe bananas are ideal, as they are sweeter and will help keep the bread moist.
  • Be sure to measure your flour correctly. Too much flour can make the bread dry and crumbly. To measure flour correctly, spoon it into a measuring cup and then level it off with a knife.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough, dense bread. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread at the correct temperature. The bread should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 55-65 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the bread to hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Gluten-free tropical banana bread is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. With its moist texture, sweet banana flavor, and tropical twist, this bread is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a gluten-free baked good, give this tropical banana bread a try!
