Ingredients
- 3 medium Ripe Bananas
- 1/2 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
- 1 Large Egg
- 3 Tbsp Melted Coconut Oil
- 1/4 cup Organic Cane Sugar
- 1/4 cup Packed Organic Brown Sugar
- 2 Tbsp Maple Syrup
- 3 1/2 tsp Gluten-Free Baking Powder
- 3/4 tsp Sea Salt
- 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
- 3/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
- 1 1/4 cup Almond Flour
- 1 1/4 cup Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour Blend
- 1 1/4 cup Gluten-Free Rolled Oats
- 1/2 cup Chopped Walnuts
Instructions
- 1
Get started by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9x5 inch loaf pan by lining it with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- 2
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. These should yield approximately 1 1/2 cups.
- 3
Add the vanilla extract, egg, melted coconut oil, cane sugar, brown sugar, maple syrup, gluten-free baking powder, sea salt, and cinnamon to the mashed bananas. Whisk everything together until well combined.
- 4
Pour in the almond milk and stir until just incorporated into the wet ingredients.
- 5
Now, gently fold in the almond flour, gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, gluten-free rolled oats, and chopped walnuts until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- 6
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
- 7
Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The top should be golden brown and slightly crackled.
- 8
Remove the banana bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for at least 15 minutes before lifting it out using the parchment paper overhang.
- 9
Allow the bread to cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. This prevents it from being too crumbly.

Enjoy your delicious Gluten-Free Banana Walnut Oatmeal Bread as is, or with a drizzle of honey or a dollop of butter.
Tips & Notes
- •For an extra nutty flavor, toast the walnuts lightly before adding them to the batter.
- •If your bananas aren't super ripe, you can add an extra tablespoon of maple syrup for sweetness.
- •Store leftover banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze slices for longer storage.
