Clean Eating Banana Apple Bread
I had so many ripe bananas that were on the brink of going bad, this was the perfect way to transform them! This bread is soooo beautiful and moist. It has no added sugars, plus it’s lactose & gluten free  - if you use gluten free oats, or you can just substitute them with more almond meal. This amazing bread was created by Happy Healthy Gigi.

Is it 2 drops or 1/2 a tsp of vanilla? Both are listed.
Tray, It's 1/2 tsp…just corrected. Thanks for letting us know.
How much vanilla is needed for the apple part? Is it the same needed for the banana portion?
I like the helpful information you provide for your articles. I’ll bookmark your blog and take a look at again right here regularly. I’m somewhat sure I will be informed many new stuff right right here! Good luck for the next!
Nutrition info?
Adrielle, We’ll be adding as soon as possible. This recipes was submitted by a guest food blogger. Thanks!
Kathy, Wheat bran should work fine!
What would be an acceptable substitute for the almond meal? I have ground flax and ground chia seeds.
Deb, I think either should work.
Alice, Sure!
I would love to know which brand of stevia you bake with as I know that some brands have a very bitter taste which can then permeate the entire dish! Many thanks!
Leslie, Just make sure it says for baking on what you purchase. This brand is good: NuNaturals Morefiber Stevia Baking Blend Powder.
Can you use almond flour instead of almond meal?
Julie, Hmmmmm…I’m not totally sure. If you’re plan is to use gluten free flour, I would recommend being sure you have the right amount of protein.
