Buckwheat & Almond Banana Bread (Gluten free + Vegan)

June 19, 2020 · In: Sweet Treats

Gluten Free + Vegan

I’m excited to share with you this recipe because over the years I have tried a few different vegan and gluten free recipes and found it challenging to get that light and fluffy consistency! But After a number of attempts I have finally come up with the most delicious banana bread with the perfect texture!! I use a mixture of gluten free goodness: buckwheat and almond flour which are both grain-free, high in fibre, and a good source of plant based protein! You’ll find that this recipe doesn’t include loads of sugar and that is because bananas are naturally very sweet (tip: the riper the bananas the sweeter the bread will be). You can also get creative by adding some crushed nuts or choc chips to the mixture!

Hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do ♥♥♥

Creamy Bowl of Chia Oats❀ such a classic breakfa Creamy Bowl of Chia Oats❀ such a classic breakfast but with some extra goodness to boost your nutrient intake! I topped with antioxidant rich blueberry compote (frozen blueberries cooked in the saucepan with a splash of water) + sliced banana + coconut + hemp seeds. I cook about 1/2 cup of oats with water until it thickens up->then add 1 tbsp. Chia seeds + with small soy milk to get them extra creamy! I also added a bit of coyo coconut yoghurt at the end! 
❀Oats are a great way to start your day as they contain fibre and protein to keep you satisfied for longer and may help with blood sugar control. 
❀Because blueberries are high in vitamin C, it increases the absorption of the iron in oats 👌🏼

What’s your favourite toppings to have with oats?! Xx
