Oat Flour Banana Bread

Oat Flour Banana Bread has sweet bananas, melted salted butter and brown sugar. It’s super moist, easy to make and ready in 30 minutes. The perfect dessert or snack.

Ingredient Notes and Health Benefits:

Oat Flour: A great gluten free option, oat flour is a great source of fiber, and is also higher in protein and healthy fats in comparison to all purpose flour. I prefer to make my own, it’s very easy. Instructions for that are below!

Bananas: are high in fiber, potassium and antioxidants. In this recipe, the more ripe the bananas, the better.

Butter: I buy Kerrygold grass fed salted butter. You can find it here.

Egg: A great source of protein, remember to beat the egg before adding it to the mixing bowl.

Ground Flaxseed: High in fiber, lignans and omega-3 fats, flaxseed has powerful antioxidant properties which may help prevent cancer.

How to Make Oat Flour:

I love to make my oat flour at home. It’s so easy and you can make it right before you bake, so it’s super fresh! Simply pour old fashioned oats into a blender, and blend until its one smooth consistent texture. If you would rather buy oat flour, there’s some really great store bought versions too. I like this one from Bob’s Red Mill.
