Banana Bread Breakfast for One

Banana bread goes perfect with this time of year and why not have some for breakfast? This nutritious banana bread is perfect to kickstart the day the right way.




Banana Bread Breakfast for One

Dry
3 Tbsp of spelt flour (or whole wheat)
1/16 tsp of salt (about a big pinch)
1/4 tsp of baking powder
1 Tbsp of Sucanat (or any organic brown sugar)
1/2 tsp of cinnamon
A few dashes of nutmeg
1 Tbsp of chopped pecans (or nut of choice) - optional
About 1/2 Tbsp of ground flax seed (for extra nutrition) - optional

Wet
1/4 tsp of vanilla extract
1 Tbsp of coconut oil (or butter or unsweetened applesauce)
1 Tbsp of milk (I used Vanilla Almond Unsweetened)
about 1 Tbsp of honey (I guestimated)
1/2 of a small banana

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Grease a small ramekin or loaf pan with coconut oil (or butter).
Combine the dry ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. Add the wet ingredients and combine. Make sure to mash the banana well into the dough. Pour mixture into the pre-greased pan and place in the oven for 12-15 mins.

I topped my banana bread with some almond butter and paired it with a cup of warm water, 1/2 juice lemon, honey, and apple cider vinegar :)

This is a quick, easy recipe to begin with but if your limited on time in the morning feel free to prepare the dry ingredients the night before and store away. Then in the morning just add the remaining wet and place it in the oven while you get ready!
