I absolutely love coconut sugar/ Banana bread recipe

I love coconut sugar I had used it in a banana bread recipe and it was delicious.

Easy Vegan Gluten Free Banana Bread

Ingredients 

3 bananas 

1 flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed with 3 tablespoons water)- mix together and then put mixture in the fridge for 15 minutes. 
1/4 cup coconut milk full fat

1/4 cup peanut butter 

2 teaspoon baking powder 

1 teaspoon baking soda 

1 teaspoon cinnamon 

1/3 cup coconut sugar 

1 1/2 cup Oat flour or all purpose gluten free flour 

2 teaspoons vanilla 

1 Tablespoon Apple cider vinegar 

Prepare your flax egg by mixing 1 tbsp of flaxseed meal with 3 tbsp of water and let it sit for 10 minutes. Pre-heat the oven to 350F. Line a 8×4 inch loaf pan. 

Mash the bananas with a potato masher or back of s fork. I personally like a few small chunks of  bananas throughout the bread, but mash at least until you can stir it around.

Add in all the wet ingredients + the optional cinnamon: coconut sugar, coconut milk, peanut butter, apple cider vinegar & cinnamon. Mix until everything is well combined.
 

Then sift in the dry ingredients: baking soda, baking powder and gluten free flour. Using a spatula, mix the batter until combined. 

Pour the batter into the lined loaf pan and bake in the oven for 30 minutes. Get some aluminum foil ready!

Take it out of the oven after 30 minutes, and it should be nice a golden… BUT WAIT. Grab your foil, cover it and bake for another 25-30 minutes. This ensures it’s baked all the way through but doesn’t burn the top. Mine took a total of 60 minutes but check using doneness at the 50-minute mark. Inset a skewer stick all the way down and if it comes out clean, take it out of the oven!

Let it sit on a cooling rack in the loaf pan for 15 minutes. Carefully remove from the loaf pan onto the wire rack and allow it to COMPLETELY cool. WARNING: If you slice it while it’s still hot, it’ll be a hot gummy mess. Brush it with some maple syrup for the beautiful sheen. 

Once it is cooled, slice and enjoy!

You’re welcome, it’s a really delicious recipe. I wasn’t able to find the picture of the times I made it (I made two loaves.) It tastes really good with milk or any alternative milks and or tea or coffee.

      You are welcome! We frequently get similar comments. Knowledge about celiac disease in the medical community at large is, unfortunately, still significantly lacking. Sometimes docs give what are obviously bum steers or just fail to give any steering at all and leave their patients just hanging out there on a limb. GI docs seem to have better knowledge but typically fail to be helpful when it comes to things like assisting their patients in grasping how to get started on gluten free eating. The other thing that, to me at least, seems to be coming to the forefront are the "tweener" cases where someone seems to be on the cusp of developing celiac disease but kind of crossing back and forth over that line. Their testing is inconsistent and inconclusive and their symptoms may come and go. We like to think in definite categorical terms but real life isn't always that way.

      Hey @Morgan Tiernan, Sounds just like my experience. I was diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis over 10 years ago. It appeared suddenly as a very itchy rash which looked like Eczema. When a steroid cream didn't clear it up, my Dermatologist (who had come across it before) suspected dermatitis herpetiformis and performed a skin biopsy which came back positive for dermatitis herpetiformis. The important thing is to get a definitive diagnosis of dermatitis herpetiformis. What you've described sounds like classic dermatitis herpetiformis though. Hopefully, your Dermatologist has come across dermatitis herpetiformis before and performs the skin biopsy correctly as trents mentioned. I've had the blisters on the knees, hips, forearms/elbows or anywhere that pressure is applied to the skin ... from clothing or otherwise. They itch like nothing on earth, and yes salt from sweat or soaps/shower gels will irritate a lot. I've been on Dapsone and it is very very effective at eliminating the dermatitis herpetiformis itch, and improved my quality of life in the early stages of getting on top of dermatitis herpetiformis while I adjusted to the gluten-free diet. But it does have various side effects as trents said. It can effect the red blood cells, lowering hemoglobin and can cause anemia, and requires regular blood monitoring whilst on it. You would need to consider it carefully with your Dermatologist if you do have dermatitis herpetiformis. Here's a very informative webinar from Coeliac Canada discussing everything dermatitis herpetiformis related.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAdmsNiyfOw I've also found this recent interview with a Dermatologist about dermatitis herpetiformis to be educational.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZnLeKutgUY Keep the chin up and keep advocating for yourself for a proper diagnosis. Though it sounds like you're on top of that already. Are you in the UK or Ireland? I'm curious because your surname is Irish.

      Thanks again everyone! Twenty mins on here way more helpful than both Dr's combined 😅

      I would go for four weeks to ensure a valid test, if you can tolerate it, that is.
