Banana bread is a classic favourite, and when you add a little twist to it—like a boost of chai flavour—things get even better. This gluten-free chai banana bread is the perfect combination of moist, sweet banana goodness with a touch of spicy warmth from the vanilla chai. It’s a great option for breakfast, a mid-afternoon snack, or even a healthy dessert. Plus, it’s packed with nourishing ingredients that will leave you feeling satisfied and energised. Let's get baking!
Why You'll Love This Banana Bread
This chai banana bread offers a deliciously spiced twist, thanks to the KAILO Vanilla Chai Superblend, which creates a comforting and aromatic loaf. The addition of coconut sugar makes it naturally sweetened, without the need for refined sugars, while still providing a rich, warm flavour. Made with almond meal, it’s naturally gluten-free, making it a fantastic choice for anyone with dietary restrictions or anyone looking for a lighter option.
The bananas and healthy fats from coconut oil add nourishing nutrients, making this bread a wholesome snack or breakfast treat that will keep you feeling energised throughout the day.
Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar (for natural sweetness)
- 1 1/2 cups almond meal (for flour)
- 1 tsp cinnamon (for that warm, cosy flavour)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (because it’s banana bread, after all!)
- 1 tsp baking soda (for the rise)
- Pinch of salt (optional, to enhance sweetness)
- 1/4 cup healthy chocolate chips (optional, for a little indulgence)
- 1 scoop KAILO Vanilla Chai Superblend (for that chai flavour boost)
- 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted (if needed for consistency)
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a loaf tin with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, mash your bananas until smooth.
-
Stir in the coconut sugar, almond meal, cinnamon, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt until everything is well combined.
-
Add in the chocolate chips (if using) and the KAILO Vanilla Chai Superblend for that delicious chai party flavour.
-
If your mixture feels a bit dry (especially if using smaller bananas), simply melt the coconut oil and stir it in to achieve the perfect consistency.
- Pour the mixture into your prepared loaf tin, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
- Let cool slightly, then enjoy with a spread of almond butter for extra goodness.
