Easy Bowl Mixing Method: Gluten-Free Banana Bread
I am in no mood for complex or complicated these days. Especially when it comes to food (been preparing three meals a day during the quarantine). I am a classic cook who appreciates simple ingredients, methods, and recipes. I’ve made croissants, bread, pasta, you name it, but I still prefer simple. It’s my jam.

So when I started to crave banana bread, I immediately thought of the one bowl method. This means putting all the ingredients in one bowl, mix, and pour. That’s it. Regarding the recipe, I used to make the non-gluten-free version and it was an instant hit for breakfast and afternoon tea. So I tweaked the original recipe to adapt to my gluten-free life and I have to say, it’s not bad. The husband does not like sweets, and he claims it’s his top five desserts, so that’s saying something. ย ๐ค
Like I’ve mentioned before, try to use the best, farm fresh ingredients. It makes a huge difference, especially the dairy products. It takes 15 minutes to prepare and mix and then put it into the oven for 50 minutes and voila.
