So I had a very full dinner (if you haven't read the blog post about my dinner yet, shame on you), but I'm a sucker for desserts. Especially if I'm stressed. Especially if I'm stressed and spent hours in the library and need some sort of outlet that isn't drinking. Especially if it's Monday.
Yes, I know Lara already made muffins very similar to this--but they weren't made in a loaf pan and my gluten-free bread had a couple of extra ingredients. It was outrageous, literally one of the best banana breads I've ever had. I can't take all the credit (although I tweaked the recipe just a tad), I'm newly obsessed with a cooking blog called Ambitious Kitchen, which is absolutely mouth-watering. Her recipe was for vegan banana bread, but because I like my non-vegan chocolate chips, I was a bit naughty and broke the vegan rules I suppose.
Gluten-Free Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Blueberry Banana Bread
2 cups Gluten-Free Oatmeal (Blended until it looks like flour)
3 very ripe bananas (mashed)
1 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
1 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Vanilla
1/3 Cup Brown Sugar
3 Tbsp Oats
1 Tbsp Brown Sugar
1 Tbsp Vegetable/Olive Oil
2 Handfuls of Fresh Blueberries
Chocolate Chips (as many as you'd like, I used Semi-Sweet)
Steps: I will make this very easy
1) Combine Blended Oat Flour, Baking Powder, Baking Soda, Vanilla, Brown Sugar, 1 Tbsp Oil, Blueberries, Chocolate Chips, and Mashed Bananas into a bowl. Mix well.
2) Pack into pan
3) Sprinkle 3 Tbsp Oats and 1 Tbsp Brown Sugar On Top of Loaf
4) Bake for 35-40 Minutes (poke with fork/knife to make sure it comes out clean)
5) Let cool for 10-15 Minutes
6) Slice and Consume
