hi everyone in today's video I'm going to make banana bread and muffin tops with bananas and dates being the only sweeteners the recipes are plant-based grain free not free and oil free so as I already mentioned the only sweeteners here are bananas and dates Adam to a food processor or a high-speed blender together with vanilla extract and blend until smooth when I'm making banana bread I like the texture to be completely smooth so I use a high speed blender the muffin tops on the other hand have a better texture from a food processor in my opinion you can try both and see what you like now I'm going to make only one batter in this video even though I'm making two recipes because the recipes are almost identical however there are a few differences so make sure you refer to the actual recipe you want to make the links will be in the description box below the next ingredients are quinoa flakes you could use rolled oats chopped pecans they were totally optional you can use chocolate chips seeds or any other add and you like baking powder and salt pause the mixture a few times until the quinoa flakes are well incorporated and I know I'm going to get this question so I'll answer it in this video yes my food processor is clean after blending the bananas and dates and that's because I film while my kids are napping and they tend to wake up when I turn the food processor on and when they wake up I don't want to film anymore so I put everything away and start from where I left off the next day alright back to the recipe once you have the batter ready you can make little muffin tops these are more like breakfast cookies regular sized muffin tops or banana bread and that's it banana Bert and muffin tops that are moist tender Hardy and make for the perfect breakfast snack or dessert I have to admit that I kind of cheated for this test because I made this banana bread and banana muffin tops with quinoa flakes and my kids loved it I liked it but Tanner didn't and so I swapped with the quinoa flakes for regular oats for Tanner way Jenna seems to prefer it's really good I think that the quinoa was not neutral at all there's certain dishes that Petric can sneak Pino into and I really like them but this was not one of them so I like quinoa so I liked it but tena doesn't like quinoa you should know that he does not like you know it is a very overpowering flavor like it it overpowered the banana flavor in my opinion in this case not in all cases like like I said it works in some dishes but not in this one in my opinion this banana bread tastes like a very familiar flour egg based banana bread which is what I like about it it is very familiar so if you have people in your house they're you're trying new dishes this is a good one to do because it is very like it just seems normal just like normal banana bread however it is not as soft and pillowy to bite into as a flower based egg based banana bread it's still moist soft and all of that stuff but it's not as soft as a normal banana bread the texture the thickness the density it might be slightly more dense there's nuts in here as well so depending on how you like it yeah that's the next batch we're gonna do that so I think if you had some butter whether that be vegan or dairy based it would taste really great on here and it's very familiar so it's a really good recipe alright so I hope you enjoyed this video if you did please give me a thumbs up comment below subscribe to my channel and I'll see you next time .

Banana bread is such a classic that you likely already have your go-to recipe. But maybe you want to mix things up a little and try a more wholesome banana date bread recipe. If that’s the case, you’re in the right place. This banana date bread is moist, tender, hearty, and makes for the perfect breakfast bread or dessert. It’s vegan, grain-free (paleo), nut-free, oil-free, and refined sugar-free.
Even though I love banana bread, it’s sometimes hit or miss as to whether it turns out. For me, it’s one of the easiest breads to make, but also one of the easiest breads to mess up. It doesn’t rise. It’s undercooked in the center. It’s too dense. It burns on the top. It just doesn’t taste good.
If you've experienced any of these issues in the past, you will love this banana bread recipe that is foolproof.
