Banana Cocoa Hemp Bread

[razka3]

I've been baking this stuff for years, have the recipe pinned down perfectly now.

Preheat oven to 350.

1 and 1/2 cups flour total (any combo is fine, just be sure to use some with gluten in it, or use xanthan gum)
-1/2 cup whole wheat
-1/2 cup spelt
-1/4 cup barley
-1/4 cup buckwheat
1/2 cup flax seed meal
1 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
-1 Tbsp stevia (optional)
1/2 cup butter
1 egg
4 bananas
1/2 to 3/4 cup yogurt/kefir/apple sauce
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 Tbsp hemp protein powder
1-2 Tbsp raw cocoa powder
Some cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, poppy seed to taste.

Get 3 bowls
Mix all the dry stuff together in 1st bowl.
Mush up bananas and yogurt in 2nd bowl.
Beat butter/sugar/vanilla in 3rd bowl.
Add egg and beat again.
Alternate adding dry mix and banana mix to 3rd bowl.

Season baking pan with butter/crisco/spray.

Bake for 55-60 min in loaf pan until inserted knife is clean
-or-
Bake for 25 min in cupcake pan.

That should be it. Sometimes I like to add some raw honey to the top of the loaf before I bake it, gives it a nice sticky sweet topping.

Really is the best banana bread you will ever have. Feel free to substitute if you don't have all the weird stuff that we have here - it's pretty fun.
