Gluten Free Banana Coconut Wonderloaf

OK, so I wasn't quite sure what to call this besides absolutely delicious! This is something everyone will love. No one would ever know it was gluten free, especially with the yummy texture of corn meal and coconut. Mm, I can hardly wait to have another piece.

As they would say on Yo Gabba Gabba... Try it! You'll like it!

Haha, I've lost my mind. But this stuff really is good.

GF Banana Coconut Wonderloaf


Note: This recipe yields 2 loaves.

1 cup Corn Meal
1/4 tsp Baking Powder
1/5 tsp Baking Soda
1/5 cup white sugar
1/5 cup brown sugar
2 cups shredded dried unsweetened coconut
3 mashed bananas
1 cup milk
1/5 cup water
1 egg
1 egg white
2 tbsp butter

Mix all the dry ingredients first. Then mix in the wet ingredients. When everything is mixed thoroughly pour into two greased or sprayed loaf pans and bake @ 350 until the top looks dried, and the knife test comes out clean.

Let this cool well before serving. It's very moist and if you don't let it cool it will fall apart.

I hope you enjoy it as much as my family did. We love it for breakfast, a snack or dessert. It would be wonderful with vanilla ice cream and some caramel drizzled over it.

Easy, inexpensive, and I didn't have to go to the store to get any of the ingredients to make this tasty treat. Who could ask for more?

Gluten-Free Banana Loaf Cake

Hello, and I'm sorry I've been gone so very long! But now I'm back, and with a delicious recipe for Banana Loaf Cake from the back of a bag of Pamela's Baking & Pancake Mix. It turned out perfect, and was gone about 30 seconds after my kids got their hands on it.

Gluten-Free Banana Loaf Cake

4 TBSP butter, melted
2 Eggs, beaten
1 3/4 Cups Pamela's Mix
1/2 Tsp Salt (I thought it could've done with just a 1/4 Tsp)
1/2 Cup Sugar
2 VERY brown bananas (mine were black)
1 Tsp Vanilla

Melt the butter and add it at the bottom of the bowl, then whisk in the eggs quickly making sure they don't cook from the melted butter. Add the remaining ingredients and mix with whatever mixing contraption you prefer. This will be a very thick mixture, and you will ask yourself... don't I need some liquid? But no, you don't. Just trust me.

Dump all of this into a greased or sprayed 8x4 loaf pan and cook at 350 degrees for about 60-75 minutes. Mine took about 75 minutes total. The result is a wonderful rich, soft loaf cake that tastes excellent with some butter spread acrossed it.



This is such an easy and delicious cake that is great morning, noon, or night. I hope you can enjoy this with your family as much as I did with mine!
