Ingredients:

  • 3 large overripe bananas, mashed (340g)
  • 1/2 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt (120g)
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup (170g)
  • 1/3 cup melted coconut oil (75g)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (5ml)
  • 1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour (190g)
  • 1 tsp baking soda (5g)
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt (3g)
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon (2g)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas until they reach a smooth consistency with only a few small lumps.
  3. Whisk in the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, Greek yogurt, egg, and vanilla extract until the mixture is well combined.
  4. Sift the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon directly into the wet mixture.
  5. Using a silicone spatula, gently fold the ingredients together until no streaks of white flour remain, being careful not to overmix.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 55 minutes.
  7. Insert a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean or with a few moist crumbs. The top should be deep golden brown.
  8. Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
