Banana bread is an absolute favourite of ours! Our healthier version comes in at 203 cals per slice, so it makes for a great afternoon tea with a cuppa. <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The key to really great banana bread is using bananas that are as ripe as possible. We’ve used buckwheat flour in this recipe, a naturally gluten free grain. It’s got a delish nutty flavour that goes great in this recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’d serve this bread toasted under the grill or in the toaster, with a dollop of yoghurt perhaps, and a cup of tea on the side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
