    Banana Nut Bread (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    The following recipe appeared in Volume 6, Number 1 (January 1997) of the Sprue-Nik Press which is published by the Tri-County Celiac Sprue Support Group, a chapter of CSA/USA, Inc. serving southeastern Michigan.

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    1 cup mashed ripe bananas
    ¼ cup chopped nuts
    ¾ cup sugar
    ¾ teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
    1 teaspoon gluten-free vanilla
    ½ teaspoon baking soda
    2 eggs
    ¼ teaspoon salt
    1-¼ cups rice flour
    ¼ cup vegetable oil

    Combine the bananas, sugar, and vanilla in a medium mixer bowl, and beat at medium speed for 1 minute. Add the eggs and mix well.

    Combine the rice flour, nuts, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixer bowl. Add the banana mixture alternately with the oil to the dry ingredients, mixing well at low speed. Pour the batter into two 8 x 4 inch loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees F for 50-60 minutes or until done. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans.

    This recipe came from the first TCCSSG cookbook, page 16.

    Wonderful & delicious! My non-gluten-free family members liked it too and couldn't believe it was gluten-free. The 2 loaves in my pans were done at 35 minutes and quite short, but they tasted fine. Next time I'll try just one loaf pan.

    I've made banana bread (non-gluten free) for years and we think this is the best we've ever tasted!

    Excellent! As good as any banana nut bread with wheat flour. Just had it hot out of the oven. Really good! Next time will try to substitute for less sugar since it could be less sweet.

    The Banana Nut Bread (Gluten-Free) posted by Scott Adams was one of the nicest surprises ever! During Christmas, 2011, I baked it for one daughter that requires gluten-free foods and all TEN of us loved it. I can't say enough good things about it.

    The recipe I'm viewing sounds great, can you advise me if I can add tofu to it. If so what part of the recipe would I remove to replace with this?

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    This recipe comes to us from Maria Oostveen. Her comments about it: My goal is to develop an all-purpose flour, that can be used for most baking purposes. I have not tested this version yet on anything else but bread and it compares 100% with regular light wheat bread. The first thing I made with it was the cheese sandwich I so badly craved and it was like heaven!! No comparison with ANY gluten-free bread I tried before, and I tried them all!!!!!!

    This recipe has been modified from Bette Hagemans Butter Basted White Bread (More From the Gluten-Free Gourmet, page 38). Here it is:
    Combine 2 cups white rice flour, ½ cup potato starch flour, ½ cup tapioca flour, 2 ½ teaspoon xanthan gum, 2/3 cup dairy milk powder, 1 ½ teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon sugar and 2 ¼ teaspoon saf-instant yeast granules thoroughly. In a separate bowl, combine 4 tablespoons melted butter, 1 cup warm water, 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar. Slowly add to dry mixture, then add 3 room temperature eggs, one at a time (the mix should feel a little warm). Beat on high for 2 minutes.

      Severe Itching And No Rash

      Are you scratching hard enough to leave bruising -- the dark marks? But no rash? And worse with exercise? And no flaking? I had vitamin deficiencies that caused neuropathy - itching, buzzing, tingling sensations, that I would scratch until I left bruising. Many of the B vitamins, if deficient, can cause this itchy feeling without a visible...
