Almond Banana Bread Cooking Time: 75 minutes Difficulty: Easy Serves: Up to 10 Directions 1. Preheat oven to 325°F and coat an 8 x 5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place a small piece of parchment paper on the bottom and up the two longer sides of pan. 2. Whisk together sugar, Almond Breeze ® , oil, vanilla and eggs in a large bowl until well mixed, then stir in banana. Stir together almond flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda and salt, then add to bowl with banana mixture, stirring just until incorporated. 3. Spread in prepared baking pan and bake for 1 hour, 15 minutes or until a bamboo skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, tenting with foil if surface browns too quickly. Let cool completely before removing from pan and slicing. (For easier slicing, let sit overnight loosely wrapped.)
