Servings
Ingredients
- 4 Bananas Smashed
- 1/4 cup Oil Or melted butter
- 1/4 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
- 3/4 cup Brown Sugar
- 2 Eggs
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla
- 2 cups Fresh Milled Einkorn Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 3/4 teaspoon Salt
- 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1/2 cup Nuts or chocolate chips
Crumble Topping (Optional)
- 1/4 cup Freshly Milled Einkorn Flour
- 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons Butter
Directions
For the banana bread:
1. Mix all wet ingredients, including the bananas in a medium sized bowl.
2. Mix the dry ingredients in a separate bowl.
3. Add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture and stir just until combined.
4. Pour the batter into a greased 9×5 bread pan and let it rest for 10 minutes.
For the Crumble topping:
1. Combine the crumble topping ingredients with your fingers until it is coarse and crumbly.
2. Sprinkle it on top of the banana bread mixture, then bake at 350 for 50-65 minutes, or 20-25 minutes for muffins.
3. It is done when a toothpick or knife inserted in the center comes out clean, or with a few moist crumbs. This makes a 9×5 bread pan or 15 muffins.
Note: If you would like to lower the sugar, lowering it to 1/2 c sugar results in a mildly sweet tender muffin. The effect of the lower sugar amount is especially small if you make the crumble topping.
These recipes are impressive. My normal recipes don’t work as well with this flour. Thank you.
Hi Allie, yes einkorn cannot be substituted 1 for 1 in a recipe that calls for modern wheat flour because it behaves very differently. I’d suggest starting with recipes written for einkorn at least until you get used to working with it.
can one use maple syrup in any of these recipes?
Hi Stephanie, it’s definitely possible to make a great quick bread sweetened with maple syrup. I wouldn’t recommend substituting it straight across for the sugar in this one because it will mess with the texture. You could check out this link for recommendations on adapting recipes.
