For all my banana bread lovers (allergy free recipe)!

Allergy free banana bread that ROCKS!
Makes 2 8-inch loaves or 1 10-inch loaf

2 flax seed eggs (2 Tbs ground flax seed & 4 Tbs water, mixed)
1/2 cup honey (or maple syrup, sugar, or other sweetener)
3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cup gluten free flour (or any other type of flour)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas (about 4 small bananas)
8 oz Enjoy Life chocolate chunks (for chocolate lovers…it’s okay to indulge and add more chocolate)
* Optional mix-ins (dried cherries or cranberries, etc.)
*If you do NOT have food allergies you can replace the flax seed "eggs" with 2 real eggs.

1. Grease two 8 inch loaf pans or a 10 inch loaf pan.
2. Preheat the oven to 350ยบ F.
3. In a small bowl or cup mix together the ground flax seed and water and let stand.
4. In a large bowl mash the bananas using a fork.
5. Add the honey, applesauce, flax seed egg mixture, and vanilla. Mix together.
6. Add the flour, salt, soda, powder, and cinnamon to your wet ingredients.

7. Add in any mix-ins. Divide even in the pans and bake about 45-55 minutes for two loaves or an hour for one (until a toothpick comes out clean or with a few crumbs attached).
