I Just Made The Most Moist Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Ever

Hi,

I just made the most moist chocolate chip banana bread ever. My sister in law made this bread and brought it to our house last Christmas eve (only thing is she made it with Regular flour, she doesn't have celiac, my husband does). I have been asking her for the recipe and I got it the other day and thought I would try to make it for my husband, Jeff but with rice flour and add xantham gum. Well it turned out GREAT. We can't stop eatting it. I think it is so moist because it has 1/2 cup heavy cream.

Heres the recipe

1 3/4 cups rice flour

1 tsp. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. baking powder

5 TBSP butter (softened)

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup light brown sugar

1 large egg

2 egg whites

1 1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas (about 3 medium)

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1/2 cup heavy cream

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided

1/2 tsp. xantham gum

1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Coat 9x5 inch loaf pan with crisco, set aside

2. Combine flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder in medium bowl; stir to mix well.

3. Place butter in large bowl; beat at medium speed until fluffy. Gradually beat in sugars; beat in egg

and egg whites. Reduce speed to low; beat in bananas. Beat in vanilla. Beat in flour mixture in 2

additions alternately with heavy cream. Stir in 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips.

4. Spoon batter into prepared pan; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 chocolate chips. Bake 55 to 60 minutes

or until wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes on wire rack; remove

from pan and cool completely on wire rack.

If you do try this recipe please if you don't mind let me know what you think (if you have the time)

Thanks and ENJOY

Sue

I'm glad your DS is enjoying it. It is a very moist tasty bread, if you have any left it will last for several days and will still be just as moist.

What do you use for heavy cream?? Sorry I am new to all this, and if you cant have dairy can you suggest something to take its place??

Thanks.

Hi,

If you can't have dairy, maybe you can try either water or use applesauce in place of the heavy cream. I know that when my Mom doesn't want the fat from oil when baking she replaces it with applesauce. I hope this helps.

If anyone else has any suggestions about replacing the cream (if you can't have dairy) please post.

Thanks,

Sue

I posted the other day about making this and how much DS loved it. I have to tell you all that one of my best friends also tried it and loved it (she is not gluten-free) and wanted the recipe. I really can't say enough good things about this bread. One large loaf was gone within 2-3 days, with DS eating the majority of it! LOL!

Hi,

I'm glad your best friend loved it too. Our 4 children and I also love this bread and we don't have to be gluten free, just my husband, Jeff. When my sister in law who also isn't gluten free gave me the recipe, I just used rice flour and xantham gum instead of regular flour and I couldn't believe how great it tasted, it tasted just like the regular loaf she brought over our house.

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
