Gluten Free Banana Honey Oat Mini Loafs

January 27, 2015

I am feeling convicted as a wife. Last night, with Nathan's last bit of sickly strength, he went to the kitchen in search of something sweet. Of course, we had nothing, so he returned to the couch with a bag of semi-sweet baking chocolate chips. I used to love baking for Nathan. Every single weekend of college, I would drive home, bake Nathan pies, cookies, and homemade breads to eat the upcoming week. If you followed me on Instagram back then you will remember; every sunday I'd post a photo of the stockpile of baked goods I made for him.

College days are long gone, as is our metabolism, so staying true to our healthy lifestyle, I decided to bake something amazing and sweet without processed sugar, so tonight poor Nathan won't have to resort to the semi-sweet chips again. He already ate a few of these and is absolutely in love. They are suspiciously moist and outrageously yummy. It is safe to say we will be seeing more of these little loaves in our future.  

You will need:

3 large ripe organic bananas

1/2 cup organic honey

1 beaten egg

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup spelt flour (regular unbleached will do but if you are trying to be extra healthy I like spelt)

1/2 cup oatmeal

3/4 cups chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 350˚. Add all ingredients to an electric mixing bowl and beat until combined. Butter and flour mini loaf pan or you can use a muffin tin. If you are dairy free substitute the butter with coconut oil. Using these small pans is better than a large loaf pan because it makes more moist bread. Bake at 350˚ for 20 minutes.

Welcome, my name is Mercedez! My husband Nathan, our little pup Thomas, and I just moved into the country outside of Austin, TX. We purchased our first home and haven't stopped renovating since! Follow along as I share my all of my favorite things in life; recipes, DIY's, beauty stuff, fashion, interior design, and so much more! 

I'm at a point in my life where getting a table runner on sale makes the day worth living.....hahaha Today Id like to be back in Saint Tropez. Everyone go follow my floral design Instagram. Ready, set, go! @theheirloomtable Down by the lake with my love. ☕️ bigger than my face. I need it today. Throwback to the good days at home in California. Sometimes, most of the time, I really miss it. I bought this 10 million dollar water bottle because it looked cool. 😒 Making salsa watching the rain😌 It's 82 degrees and raining. In Texas 82 degrees feels like sweater weather. One more house picture cause I'm loving our new living room. So much brighter and cozier than the last ❤️ I love our throw pillows! My kitchen sink window makes me so happy 😍
