I was amazed the first time I made this bread at home. This recipe was given to my sister by her friend. I used all the healthy ingredients in the recipe and was wondering how this recipe turned out so well and does not taste like a whole wheat bread. A while ago I was watching one of the cooking shows dedicated to gluten free cooking and the chef was mentioning that when banana's are added in the end they keep the bread moist. Voila! that is how the banana bread stayed moist and tasted amazing. I was wondering if it was tasting so amazing with whole wheat flour it must taste out of the world with APF. Here is the healthy version of the banana bread, believe me you will not be disappointed.
