Lavender Banana Bread
Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil or extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
- 2 eggs
- 2 large over ripe bananas
- ¼ cup milk of choice
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 4tbs lavender sugar (divided equally)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 ¾ cups white whole wheat flour or regular whole wheat flour
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, beat the oil and honey together with a whisk. Add the eggs and beat well, then whisk in the mashed bananas and milk.
- Add the baking soda, vanilla, 2tbs lavender sugar, and salt and whisk to blend. Lastly, switch to a big spoon and stir in the flour, just until combined. Some lumps are ok!
- Pour the batter into your greased loaf pan and sprinkle 2 tbs lavender sugar on top.
- Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the loaf pan for at least 10 minutes. You may need to run a butter knife around the edges to loosen the bread from the pan. Carefully transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool before slicing
