Ingredients

  • 1 cup gluten-free baking flour (148 grams)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg⁠
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 medium-large brown bananas (275 grams/1 heaping cup mashed)⁠
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup ghee, slightly softened⁠ (52 grams)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons honey (22 grams)
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips⁠ (75 grams)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease an 8x8 pan with a little ghee/butter/oil.
  • Mix together your dry ingredients. Add flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a small bowl and mix well to combine.
  • Combine your wet ingredients. In a separate medium-large bowl, mash your bananas until smooth. If needed, melt your ghee in the microwave for about 10 seconds or in a small saucepan over the stove. Add your egg, softened ghee, and honey and mix well to combine.
  • Add your dry ingredients to your wet ingredients and mix well. Stir in 1/4 cup of the chocolate chips.
  • Bake. Pour the batter into your greased baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining chocolate chips and bake for 30-32 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool, cut into 9 pieces, and enjoy!⁠
