Instructions
To make the honey roasted bananas
Use an airfryer, set to 400F or set your oven to the airfry setting at 400F (or if you don’t have an airfryer, set your oven to broil on low).
- If you have 6 bananas, slice 3 of the in half length wise or if using 5, slice 2 of them in half length wise. Place the sliced bananas on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, sliced side up. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon honey and a pinch of cinnamon.
- Bake/airfry or broil for 2-4 minutes. Watch the bananas – you want them to become slightly browned but not burnt. Remove from the oven/airfryer and set aside to cool.
To make the banana bread,
- Preheat your oven 375F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or grease with coconut oil.
- In a medium sized mixing bowl, smash the remaining 3 bananas with a fork until there are very little clumps. Add in the melted coconut oil, honey, maple syrup, eggs, coconut milk and vanilla extract.
- Then add the dry ingredients: baking soda, salt, and flour. Don’t forget the rest of the cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon. Mix with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon to combine.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Top with roasted bananas – see picture for how I did it.
- Bake for 45 minutes. Turn the oven to 400F after baking for 45 minutes. Bake for another 15 minutes or until a toothpick or thin small knife, insert it into the center comes out clean. If not, bake for another 6-8 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let bread rest for 10 minutes in the pan. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for an additional 10 minutes before you slice into.
