Healthy Gluten-Free Chai Spiced Banana Bread. An excellent way to use up overripe bananas is to make banana bread. In this recipe, I wanted more flavour than just bananas, so I added my favourite blend of chai spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom and fresh ginger. Because I wanted to keep this recipe healthier, I didn’t add sugar and used only olive oil for fats. Overripe bananas are much sweeter than green bananas, so they are ideal for a recipe when it calls for a sweetener, the best part, even though they are sweeter the calories remain the same and they have many health benefits 

Since I used only bananas as a sweetener, this is not a sweet breakfast cake. This delicious chai spiced banana bread is only lightly sweetened, making it an excellent addition to cheeses or if you like more sweetness add a splash of marmalade. If you prefer a sweeter version of gluten-free banana bread, add 1/4 cup of coconut sugar to the recipe. If you want more gluten-free recipes to use up ripe bananas check these out->
