1/2 cup unsalted butter softened (1 stick) 2 large eggs 1 cup granulated sugar 1 tsp. vanilla extract 4 large ripe bananas mashed 1 tsp. almond extract 1 tsp. baking powder 1 tsp. baking soda 1/2 tsp. salt 4 cups gluten free flour (I prefer Cup4Cup) 1 cup almonds sliced 1 cup chocolate chips 1/2 cup extra almonds for topping
Mash bananas on a plate with a fork; set aside.
Stir butter, eggs, sugar, vanilla, bananas, almond extract, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
Whisk until well combined.
Add gluten free flour, almonds and chocolate chips and stir together with a wooden spoon until combined.
Grease and flour (with gluten free flour) 4 miniature bread loaf pans.
Spoon bread mixture into loaf pans and smooth tops.
Sprinkle extra almonds on top and press into the surface of the bread dough.
Bake at 350° for 40 minutes or until knife inserted in center of loaf comes out clean.
Cool completely in pan.
To remove from pan, do not invert or almonds will fall off tops.
Using a small spatula gently lift bread out of bread pan and place on cutting board to cut.
Each loaf makes approximately 5-6 pieces.
NOTE: I recommend using Cup4Cup gluten free flour as one of the best GF blended flours I've come across.
NOTE: Coconut flour is not recommended for this recipe.
NOTE: I found that regular baking powder and soda worked better than xanthan gum in the recipe as a leavening agent.
NOTE: For a moister bread, add an additional 1/4 cup of butter, oil or sour cream to the recipe or add 1/4 cup sour cream.
