Moist, fluffy hummingbird bread that is grain-free, refined sugar-free and oil-free for a healthier treat! Make it for breakfast, snack, or dessert!
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 50 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour

Ingredients

  • 2 ripe mashed bananas about ¾ cup
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup chopped pineapple*
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt

For Topping:

  • 3 Tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut optional
  • ¼ cup raw pecans chopped, optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a 9” x 5” loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Mash the bananas in a large bowl until most of the chunks are out. Whisk in the eggs, chopped pineapple and vanilla extract until everything is well-combined (wet ingredients).

  • Transfer the bread batter to the parchment-lined loaf pan and spread it into an even layer. If desired, top with shredded coconut and raw pecans so that there's a little crunch on the top of the bread.

  • Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove the bread from the oven, cover it in aluminum foil, then continue baking for another 15 to 20 minutes, or until the bread is golden-brown around the edges and tests clean.

Notes

*I use canned pineapple that I chop more finely.
Store any leftover bread in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. You can also freeze this bread! To do so, slice it into individual slices, wrap it in plastic wrap, then place it in a zip lock bag and seal it up. This will allow the bread to stay fresh longer. It should keep for up to 4 months.
