Happy and healthy banana bread

                                                     Simply scrumptious :)


You will need:

3 big bananas, ripe
2 cups of spelt flour
1/3 cup of olive oil
1/4 cup of brown sugar
1/3 cup of natural yogurt
2 eggs beaten
1 teaspoon of vanilia essence 
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 tablespoon of honey
1 tablespoon of cocoa powder
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
few walnuts chopped(optional)
25g of dark chocolate chopped(optional)


Preheat the oven to 175 degrees. Grease and flour a loaf pan and put it on the side.  In the meantime stir all the dry ingredients together including walnuts and chocolate if you are using them.

In smaller bowl mash the bananas with a fork until finely smooth.
This one did not really want to be in my bread ;-)

  Add the beaten eggs and the rest of wet ingredients and mix well.  Batter should not be too fine. Pour the mixture into the pan.  Sprinkle a little bit of cocoa powder on top.

Bake it until the top of the bread has got brown and firm.  I would suggest about 45 to 50 minutes.

Remove it from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.


It tastes heavenly when warm but it can also be enjoyed cold and can be kept up to 5 days :)
