Coconut Banana Bread

I was looking for a way to blend the flavors of banana and coconut.  I wanted  a recipe that was healthy, moist, and would hit the spot replacing the morning muffin with coffee routine that is high in sugar and fat.  I tried several different recipes and settled on this one. It is moist, crunchy, and delicious.



1 & 3/4 cups almond flour
1/2 cup coconut flour
2 tbsp ground flax seeds
1/2 tsp salt
1 &  1/2 tsps baking soda

4 medium bananas
3/4 cup pineapple with juice
2 eggs
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup apple sauce
Stevia ( not sure of exact measurement I just put in a few shakes of dried stevia)
1 cup chopped walnuts or other nuts depending on preference



Heat oven to 350 degrees.  Whisk dry ingredients in a bowl.  Put wet ingredients in blender or food processor and blend until smooth.  Do not liquefy.  Add wet ingredients to dry and mix. Add walnuts

last.  Pour batter into a greased loaf pan and cook about 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of bread comes out clean.
