I am not sure there is a greater comfort food then delicious, warm, fresh baked banana bread.
The sweet smell takes over the entire home... Five minutes after the pan is placed into the oven, my husband and kids will make their way into the kitchen to see what I have to fill their bellies!!
I have added walnuts, hemp seeds, millet seeds, and chia seeds to bump up the nutritional value and give it a little extra crunch.
Go ahead and pull out your 9 x 5 inch pan and let's start baking!

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups spelt flour (white spelt, feel free to mix other similar flours)
- 1/3 cup coconut sugar
- 1/3 cup melted butter (or vegan butter)
- 1 egg (use flax egg for vegan)
- 1 tsp pure vanilla
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 3 large ripe bananas
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts
- 3 tbsp hemp seeds
- 3 tbsp millet seeds
- 1 tsp sea salt
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350° F. Prepare a 9 x 5 inch baking pan with butter or coconut oil.
In a medium size bowl whisk together the coconut sugar, melted butter, egg, vanilla, maple syrup, mashed banana and baking soda.
In another medium sized bowl, sift in the flour and then add the remaining ingredients. Stir to combine.
Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture bowl. Stir just until the flour is no longer visible, do not over stir (the more you stir, the more tough the bread will become).
Now add the mixture to the 9 x 5 inch baking pan.
Place to pan into the oven and bake for 50-55 minutes. The bread's edges should be golden brown. Test the bread by inserting a toothpick into the center, it should come out clean. Let the bread cool for 10 minutes and then remove from the pan, slice and enjoy!
Store in an airtight container for 3-4 days (definitely doesn't last that long in our home).
