Hey there, fellow bakers! Let’s turn those ripe bananas into a scrumptious, moist loaf with subtle yet satisfying sweetness and notes of cinnamon. We’ve tweaked this classic favourite so it’s just three ingredients and sugar-conscious, and our mix is gluten-free so you don’t have to worry about that! If you’re following the Epic Life program, slice the loaf into 12 servings for an Epic Life-approved dessert.
