Breakfast / June 9, 2016

Gluten-Free Coconut & Banana Bread

This subtly sweet gluten-free bread for those afternoons when you want something sweet without the guilt. It also makes a delicious and easy breakfast. Spread on a little grass fed butter, a little nut butter, some extra fruit or enjoy it alone with a cup of tea. As a nut-free loaf, this is suitable to throw in the children’s lunch boxes too.
