I absolutely love coconut sugar/ Banana bread recipe

I love coconut sugar I had used it in a banana bread recipe and it was delicious.

Easy Vegan Gluten Free Banana Bread

Ingredients 

3 bananas 

1 flax egg (1 tablespoon flaxseed with 3 tablespoons water)- mix together and then put mixture in the fridge for 15 minutes. 
1/4 cup coconut milk full fat

1/4 cup peanut butter 

2 teaspoon baking powder 

1 teaspoon baking soda 

1 teaspoon cinnamon 

1/3 cup coconut sugar 

1 1/2 cup Oat flour or all purpose gluten free flour 

2 teaspoons vanilla 

1 Tablespoon Apple cider vinegar 

Prepare your flax egg by mixing 1 tbsp of flaxseed meal with 3 tbsp of water and let it sit for 10 minutes. Pre-heat the oven to 350F. Line a 8×4 inch loaf pan. 

Mash the bananas with a potato masher or back of s fork. I personally like a few small chunks of  bananas throughout the bread, but mash at least until you can stir it around.

Add in all the wet ingredients + the optional cinnamon: coconut sugar, coconut milk, peanut butter, apple cider vinegar & cinnamon. Mix until everything is well combined.
 

Then sift in the dry ingredients: baking soda, baking powder and gluten free flour. Using a spatula, mix the batter until combined. 

Pour the batter into the lined loaf pan and bake in the oven for 30 minutes. Get some aluminum foil ready!

Take it out of the oven after 30 minutes, and it should be nice a golden… BUT WAIT. Grab your foil, cover it and bake for another 25-30 minutes. This ensures it’s baked all the way through but doesn’t burn the top. Mine took a total of 60 minutes but check using doneness at the 50-minute mark. Inset a skewer stick all the way down and if it comes out clean, take it out of the oven!

Let it sit on a cooling rack in the loaf pan for 15 minutes. Carefully remove from the loaf pan onto the wire rack and allow it to COMPLETELY cool. WARNING: If you slice it while it’s still hot, it’ll be a hot gummy mess. Brush it with some maple syrup for the beautiful sheen. 

Once it is cooled, slice and enjoy!

You’re welcome, it’s a really delicious recipe. I wasn’t able to find the picture of the times I made it (I made two loaves.) It tastes really good with milk or any alternative milks and or tea or coffee.

      Thank you for saying that. That doctor diagnosed me with IBS with no follow-up so the relationship is already concluded. If I pursue diagnosis further I'll request someone else.

      Hey everyone. Thanks again for your suggestions. I wanted to give an update and ask for some follow-up suggestions from you all.  So I did go through all of my food items and stopped eating things that were “gluten free” and switched over to the “certified gluten free” ones (the ones with the g symbol). I also stayed away from restaurants except once and there I ordered something raw vegan and gluten free hoping for the best. I also stayed away from oats and soy and dairy. I've also been increasing my vitamin B complex. I've been doing this for about 12 days and while I know that's not that long, I'm still getting sick. Sometimes having diarrhea. Sometimes getting headaches and having necklaces. Sometimes waking up feeling horrible brain fog. I did go to my GI doc and they did a blood test and found my TtG-IgA was in the negative range (and a lower number than I'd had before). I also had normal levels of CRP. My stool showed no elevation of calprotectin and no pathogens. My GI doc said the symptoms could be related to a gluten exposure or to IBS. I'm keeping a food diary to see if I can narrow down whats going on. I know I have good days and bad days and Im trying to isolate what makes a good day versus a bad day. Generally so far it looks like if it eat something super cautious like raw vegetables that I chopped myself into a salad and almonds, im fine but if I eat something more complex including, say, chicken and rice (even if packaged and certified gluten free or made by me with gluten free ingredients), it may not go so well. I may end up with either a headache, neck tension, brain fog, and/or diarrhea that day or the morning after. Any other thoughts or suggestions? I am planning to start tracking my foods again but I wanted to do it in more detail this time (maybe down to the ingredient level) so are there any common ingredients that celiacs have issues with that you all know of that I should track? I've got dairy, oats, soy, eggs, corn, peas, lentils on my “watch list”. Other things I should add? I'm hoping if I track for another two weeks I can maybe pin down some sensitivities. Appreciate the help and tips. Thank you so much!!

      "My GI doctor ruled out gluten celiac entirely because I didn't have skin rash." Are you serious? The overwhelming majority of people with confirmed celiac disease do not have the rash. It's called dermatitis herpetiformis. It is found in only about 10-15% of those with celiac disease: https://www.celiac.ca/gluten-related-disorders/dermatitis-herpetiformis/ If your GI doc is operating on that piece of misinformation, I would start looking for a new GI doc because I wouldn't trust him/her in general.

      Thank you so much for your informative reply. My GI doctor ruled out gluten celiac entirely because I didn't have skin rash. I had a histamine response to wheat and milk by scratch test by an allergist. I'm not always symptomatic but the older I get the worse it gets. I've found through trial and error that I can react to all grains. Buckwheat and corn included. I tolerate some rice but I wouldn't want to eat it every day. Potato is pretty good for me but I can't eat it every day either. I compromise with squash. I tolerate it well. The Best I feel is while fasting. When I'm in pain and discomfort it's easy to fast even long term, it helps. The problem I'm having is I'm great with my diet for 3-6 months then I start to cheat again. When I don't get immediate symptoms I get this foolish false security. I react then go back to my diet. Rinse and repeat. I suppose discipline is my real issue. I'm very tired of perusing a diagnosis. The constant gaslighting and dismissal is exhausting. Thanks for your suggestion of the autoimmune protocol. I will give it a try. Perhaps the guidelines will help me to navigate better.   Thanks again.

      This isn't the first potential celiac disease treatment in the pipeline that failed. There have been others...
