Healthy Banana Bread
If you’re like me, you LOVE banana bread, and this healthier version will defs hit the spot!
Although there is still a time and place for both - It’s less refined than ones you may buy in a café (that are often more like a dessert than a ‘bread’), using whole bananas, oats, almond meal and extra virgin olive oil.
Fun Fact: A ripe banana is low GI and contains carbohydrates, potassium and vitamin B6, making it great for pre or post exercise!
Therefore, although it's healthy, snacking on a whole banana is always a better option.
