If your children are gluten intolerant, coeliac or if you simply want to go for a low glycemic index diet (see the related post Smart Food for Smart Kids), this quick and easy recipe is for you. It’s also sugar-free yet delicious and it will please the whole family.
Ingredients :
400g ripe bananas (about 4),
6 eggs
2 large pitted dates, or 3 small ones
60ml coconut oil
70gr gluten-free flour (I do a mix of chestnut, brown rice, buckwheat and oat, but you can use a single one and also use corn flour)
20g chia seeds
A dash of vanilla (ideally natural, in powder)
2 tsp cinnamon powder
2 tsp baking powder
Walnuts or pecan nuts (optional)
Instructions (children can easily bake this alone or with a little help) :
Preheat the oven (170º).
Mix all ingredients in a blender EXCEPT CHIA SEEDS AND NUTS.
Add chia seeds and nuts and let rest 10 mn.
Grease a cake mould with coconut oil.
Bake for 50 to 55 minutes.
In winter I serve it with a persimmon puree.
Bon Appetit!
