Banana bread is a moist, sweet, and cake-like bread recipe. February 23 is considered an official banana bread day. Do you know what, Some food historians believe banana bread was a byproduct of the Great Depression as resourceful housewives did not wish to throw away overripe bananas 🙂

I was really excited to try gluten-free flour as I wanted to see the texture and taste of gluten-free flour. Moreover, recently a reader asked me to share some gluten-free recipes and I thought banana bread is a great start.

The ingredients of this recipe are easy to find. I used store-bought gluten-free flour here. Fresh, ripe bananas are the heart of the recipe. Though I am not following a strict gluten-free diet, I like to make some of my days gluten-free. Below are some of the health benefits of a gluten-free diet and bananas👇
