Grain-Free Banana Loaf

Grain-free with a dairy-free option, this loaf is moist, flavourful, and very lightly sweetened with maple syrup to let the bananas really shine!  

Enjoy it fresh out of the oven, or slice and store in your fridge or freezer, then grill it up with some butter or coconut oil to enjoy later…
