Many of the patients that I see suffer from Celiac Disease, which is an allergy to gluten. I have started to modify some of my families favorite recipes so that my Celiac and Gluten allergic patients can enjoy them also. This is my first recipe blog entry.
We love banana bread in our house. Growing up we would make banana bread, especially around the holidays. I would use the ripest bananas, right before your would toss them in the garbage. They are perfect for baking when they are almost all black and super ripe. We would package up the banana bread we baked and give them as gifts to neighbors. Here is a Gluten Free-Dairy Free version.
