Ingredients

3 cups rolled oats (2.75 cups oat flour)
3 large bananas
.25 cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
⅓ cup maple syrup
2 eggs
2 teaspoon cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon salt
¾ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350F.
Using a food processor grind 3 cups of old fashioned rolled oats into fine oat flour. You want 2.75 cups of oat flour so if you end up short, grind more oats into flour. You want to grind so that your oat flour is very fine. (or you can purchase fine oat flour.)
In a large bowl, mash bananas with a fork. Then, whisk together maple syrup, eggs, mashed bananas, and unsweetened vanilla almond milk.
Add cinnamon, salt, baking soda, and baking powder to oat flour. Mix to combine evenly.
Next, add the wet mixture to the flour mixture and mix until totally combined. The batter will be a little sticky, that's okay.
Let the mixture sit for five minutes.
Spray parchment paper with cooking spray and line a loaf pan with parchment paper. The paper will wrinkle, this is the price we pay for easier cleanup!
Add mixture to your parchment paper lined bread pan and place it on the top rack of the oven.
Bake for 50-55 minutes until inserted toothpick comes out clean.
Let cool COMPLETELY. Ideally, let cool for a few hours on the counter, then let cool completely in the fridge overnight. This is so it doesn't crumble, but if you can't wait that long it will still be delicious!
