Recipe: Vegan Banana Bread with Almond Flour
Ingredients:
* 3 large ripe bananas, mashed
* 1 1/2 cups almond flour
* 1/2 cup rolled oats
* 1/4 cup coconut sugar
* 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
* 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
* 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
* 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
* 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
* 1 flax egg*

Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray or oil.

6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
7. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

Tips and Variations:
* For an extra moist bread, use 4 bananas instead of 3.
* Add chocolate chips, dried cranberries, or raisins to create a fruity and sweet version.
* Use different spices like ground ginger, cardamom, or nutmeg to give your bread a unique flavor.
* Substitute some of the almond flour with coconut flour for a gluten-free option.
* Make muffins instead of a loaf by dividing the batter evenly among 12 muffin cups. Bake for 20-25 minutes.
* Freeze the bread for up to 3 months and thaw at room temperature or reheat in the microwave.
