GF Choc Chip, Cinnamon Banana Bread

by | Aug 18, 2016 | 2 comments

There are so many different ways you can enjoy this banana bread, fresh out of the oven, slathered in butter or honey, cold and chilled, even with some additional nut butter on top or simply enjoy it as it is. You could also try some different flavour combinations such as adding in orange zest, chopped nuts (if tolerated), dried and chopped dates or figs or some fresh blueberries for something a little different. Any way you have it, it's sure to be absolutely delicious!
