TIPS AND TRICKS FOR DAIRY FREE BANANA BREAD
- Brown or yellow bananas? You can use fresh, yellow bananas, but it will not be as good. As a banana ripens, the starchy fruit becomes more sugary. The sweeter the bananas are, the better your bread will be! Bananas can have totally brown peels and still be perfect for banana bread. The bananas will still be yellow but much easier to mash.
- Not gluten-free? Swap out the all purpose gluten free flour for regular AP flour. However, chances are your family won't even know this dairy free banana bread is gluten-free...its that good!
- Did you know that you can freeze bananas? If you have bananas that are brown and ready to go, but you do not want to make banana bread yet, just remove the peel and freeze them! The freezer will probably make the bananas brown, but that is okay! When you are ready to use, just thaw in the microwave for about 2 minutes.
