Gluten Free Banana Bread

This will be the best banana bread you have ever made. It is moist, tender and gluten free. You can also make it dairy free.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Like I always say when I post a gluten free recipe, don’t discount this recipe because you aren’t gluten free.  I am sure you know at least one or two people that are gluten free and wouldn’t it be fun to take them a treat they could eat!

I have shared with The Best Banana Bread recipe before – it’s an old family favorite and many, many of you who have tried it agree with me that it is truly THE BEST banana bread. So moist!

So over the Christmas break I decided to try gluten free banana bread and replace the regular flour in our favorite banana bread recipe with my gluten free flour mix and it worked beautifully.  In fact you will be hard pressed to tell this bread is gluten free!

The bread is light, moist and doesn’t have the grittiness that a lot of gluten free baked items do.
