What makes this banana bread sugar-free?

This banana bread is naturally sweetened by ripe mashed bananas and fresh berries, with no added sugars or sweeteners.

How do you make flax eggs for this recipe?

To make the flax eggs, combine 2 tablespoons of ground flax seed with 6 tablespoons of water and let it sit in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to thicken before adding to the batter.

Can I use regular flour instead of oat flour?

This recipe specifically calls for whole grain gluten-free oats ground into flour to ensure it remains gluten-free and provides a unique texture. Substituting other flours may alter the consistency and baking time.

How do I prevent the berries from sinking to the bottom?

The recipe instructs layering the batter and dropping fresh berries on top in stages, which helps distribute them evenly throughout the loaf instead of sinking.

How should I store leftover Berry Banana Bread?

Once completely cooled, store the banana bread in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days, or wrap well and freeze slices for longer storage.
