Gluten Free Banana Bread Using Better Batter

I've been on a total banana kick lately...which is funny as several years ago I used to hate bananas. But now, they are the cream cheese to my bagel <3. I also recently picked up some Better Batter flour mix at Gluten Free Country Store (this is an uncompensated review, btw) that I've been itching to use. So what better than to combine the two and make banana bread!!!

I found the recipe using Pinterest (umm...hello, love that site). The original recipe can be found here.

The results didn't disappoint!!

Gluten Free Banana Bread

 (pics are from my iPhone, so sorry if they are shitastic)
1 stick of butter (1/2 cup), softened (sub dairy free if necessary)3/4 cup brown sugar2 eggs1 tsp vanilla4 large overripe, mashed bananas2 cups Better Batter Flour Mix1 tsp baking soda1 tsp cinnamon1/4 tsp nutmeg1/4 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine butter and sugar until creamy. Add mashed bananas, eggs, and vanilla. Beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, combine GF flour, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and stir until combined. Pour into a greased bread pan.
Bake for 55 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool before removing from pan.
(again...iPhone pic. My apologies)
I can't vouch for what non-GF banana bread tastes like (see: aforementioned hatred of bananas), but to me, I can't tell this bread is gluten free! It is dense, but not spongy. It's moist, but not mushy. It has just the right amount of sweetness. The crust is the best part: a little crunchy, a little chewy. This bread is so delicious, I will definitely be making it again! And again. And again.

So far I love Better Batter's flour mix..it is a cup-for-cup substitute that stands up in recipes really well. If you haven't browsed their website yet, check out their recipe archive. So many good recipes, it leaves my head spinning!!

If you live in Arizona, the ONLY place I have been able to find Better Batter products is at Gluten Free Country Store! Check them out ASAP! Love them!
