Banana Bread for Baby

Submitted by Papagayita

"A variation on my usual banana bread with added spinach, molasses substituted for sugar & made dairy free. Freezes great in slices for a quick, nutritious breakfast or snack for baby & toddler."

 

• Ready In: 1hr
• Ingredients: 15
• Yields: 2 loaves
• Serves: 20

ingredients

• 3 ripe bananas (using medium sized bananas)
• 4 eggs
• 2⁄3 cup coconut milk (can use almond, regular, or any other kind of milk)
• 1 tablespoon vanilla
• 1⁄8 cup maple syrup (or unsulphered molasses)
• 1⁄2 apple (or 1/4 C applesauce)
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour (can use all whole wheat)
• 2 cups rolled oats
• 2 tablespoons chia seeds
• 2 tablespoons hemp seeds
• 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
• 1⁄2 cup frozen spinach, thawed

directions

1. Mix wet ingredients together in blender or food processor, adding oats gradually.
2. Stir dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Add wet ingredients & stir.
3. Stir batter only enough to completely mix ingredients; don't over mix which will toughen the bread.
4. Pour batter into greased pans (sprinkled with granulated sugar if you want a crunchy sweet crust) and bake at 350 for 45 minutes-1 hour-do the knife test to check doneness or until the middle of the loaf is set, being careful not to burn the top and bottom of the loaf.
5. Bread will continue to cook in the middle after you take it out of the oven.
