How to Store & Freeze

• Storage: Keep banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for 3–4 days.

• Freezing: Once cooled, wrap the loaf in foil or plastic wrap, place in a freezer-safe bag, and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight before slicing.

Is Almond Flour Gluten-Free?

Yes! Almond flour is made from finely ground, blanched almonds. It’s naturally gluten-free, grain-free, and low-carb, making it a favorite in Paleo and keto baking.

Tips for the Best Almond Flour Banana Bread

• Always use super-fine blanched almond flour, not almond meal.

• Don’t skip greasing the pan—it helps prevent sticking.

• Let the bread cool completely before slicing for the best texture.

• Feel free to add mix-ins like chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or berries.

• For overnight ease, bake it the day before and slice it in the morning.
