Almond Flour Banana Bread

 





I made this almond flour banana bread based on a recipe I found on Instagram.  Almond flour has a different texture than regular flour but it is good.

2 med bananas mashed

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp vanilla

1 1/2 c almond flour

2 eggs

1/2 c sweetener (I used a zero calorie syrup sweetener)

pre heat oven 350 F 

In a bowl mash bananas.  Add baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon.  Stir in eggs, vanilla, sweetener.  Fold in almond flour.  Transfer to a loaf pan lined with parchment paper.

Bake 350 F 40-50 min

Freebie


 I got a free drink with purchase last week when I went to the grocery store.  It was a nice surprise.

Oops it seems this is a protein drink with warnings not to consume more than one a day and not to be taken with other similar supplements. This version is 120 calories with sugar. They have a light version with 15 calories. But protein drinks are a no no for us.

Yves Veggie Ham




 Daughter L served this Yves Veggie Ham at a party and it was very successful.  So I decided to try it again.  It is a bit salty but acceptable.

Sunday Smiles - Sweet Summer Fruit


 The fruit at this time of year has been exceptionally sweet this year.  The blackberries are the sweetest I have ever had.  The cherries are good too, great price.
