- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar or maple sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

- 1 1/4 cups almond flour
- 1/2 cup tapioca flour
- 2 Tablespoons coconut flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 9 in x 5 in loaf pan and line with parchment paper.

- In another bowl, combine the almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Mix with a fork until blended.
- Pour the bowl of dry ingredients into the bowl of wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
- Pour the banana bread batter into the loaf pan. Bake for 45-55 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.

- Instead of tapioca flour, you can use arrowroot powder.
- You can add chocolate chips to the batter.
