I used about 3/4 cup of pumpkin and added in 1/4 of water to make a full cup!
Mash the bananas until they look about like this!
All of the wet ingredients mixed up should look like this!
The batter should be really smooth once you combine the wet an dry ingredients.
You can totally add in some chocolate chips, too, because why not…
I made muffins as well as a loaf of bread since I had enough batter!
Just look at that pumpkin-chocolate-banana-y goodness!
Healthy Gluten Free Pumpkin Banana Bread
3/4 cup canned pumpkin (plus 1/4 water)
2 eggs
1/2 cup honey (or sugar if you would like!)
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/2 cup Bob’s Red Mill One-to-One Gluten Free Baking Flour (or any other gluten free flour!)
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 mashed rip bananas (or about 1 1/4-1/2 cups)
1/2 cup chocolate chips if you would like!
Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix all of the dry ingredients together in a small bowl, and in another small bowl, mix the pumpkin and water together until it has an applesauce consistency. Add the other wet ingredients together, and mix until everything is combined. Mix the wet and dry ingredients together in a large bowl, and add in chocolate chips if you prefer – if not, you could add in some nuts, or nothing at all! Melt some coconut oil and soak a paper towel in it to coat your muffin tin and/or bread pan with. Pour the batter into the pans, and put the muffins in the oven for about 16-18 minutes, or until golden brown, and put the bread in for 45 minutes. Check on them regularly if there isn’t as much batter in the pan. Let your yummy gluten-free goodies cool and enjoy the wonderful taste that is pumpkin!
I think I could eat pumpkin year-round and be perfectly happy, but there’s something so special about getting to enjoy it as soon as it turns to fall! I’m so happy I decided to use those pesky brown bananas instead of throwing them away, because now I get to enjoy these gluten-free muffins and bread! The Bob’s Red Mill flour really does make gluten-free baked goods taste just as good as regular goodies, and it’s so easy to work with. I would definitely try it out if you haven’t already!
What is your favorite fall flavor?
Thank you so much for reading, and have a wonderful day! 🙂

Cinnamon roll pancakes! I made these for my family, and they were pretty darn good! |

And of course TJ was taking his morning nap right underneath me while I was cooking. |
Sweet little moment between my dad and Miki. |
Aaaaand then Willow sees Miki is getting brushed… |

My mom and I made this little fairy garden for my dad that doubles as a hummingbird feeder, since he loves birds! |
The card I made for my dad. |
It even lights up! I’ll be doing a whole post on this in the coming week so be on the look out for that! 🙂 |
Perry apparently did not want to be photographed… |
