Let’s Make It Together

Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish with nonstick spray or butter to prevent sticking.

Mash Those Bananas: In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth with a fork. The riper they are, the sweeter they’ll be

Mix Wet Ingredients: Add eggs, milk, melted butter (or coconut oil), and maple syrup to the mashed bananas. Mix well until thoroughly combined and creamy.

Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together gluten-free flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. This helps ensure even distribution of leavening agents.

Stir Together: Gently fold the dry mixture into the wet mixture using a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing we want that fluffy texture

Bake Away: Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and set in the center.

Cool and Serve: Allow it to cool slightly before slicing into squares. Serve warm drizzled with extra maple syrup or topped with fresh fruit
