Banana and sago pudding (Sau Chee)

Just a few ingredients!
Ingredients: sago pearls (or tapioca pearls); sugar (and/or black strap molasses); coconut milk and/or other kinds of milk; very ripe bananas; raisins (optional). (Australian molasses and pearls are available at Coles and probably at Woolies too.)

Method: Soak the sago pearls in water until they’re soft (about an hour). In a pan (with a heavy base), caramelise the sugar with coconut milk (add some butter too if you want to!). I like to “burn” it ever so slightly for a smoky flavour and aroma!  Then add the mashed bananas and pearls. Add raisins if you want to. Keep stirring and adding more milk (or water if you don’t want it too milky). If using black strap molasses, add this at any stage, even afterwards. Keep stirring until the pearls are translucent and you can’t see the banana any more. This recipe is flexible -  you can adjust the sugar and the milk to the way you like it! You can add as much coconut milk as you want or replace it with another kind of milk. I like to use a bit of both. You can add more milk later just before you eat it - and you can eat it cold or hot!

With the amount of times that I make this paleo banana bread, it is no secret as to how it's the most popular recipe on my website... EVER!!! Knowing this is quite humbling; and I just love that it gives people a delicious and HEALTHY option. This recipe has been turned into quite a few different dishes and I love hearing all of your variations. Comment below and let me know how you've spiced it up!

Paleo Banana Bread

Like I mentioned, I've made a few variations of this recipe already... just a few! Here are my favorites:

Now it's confession time... this recipe was a delicious mistake. I was perfecting a paleo pancake recipe that is now in The Paleo Kitchen (page 95) and asked myself; "Why not Banana bread?". Every recipe I have seen for Paleo Banana Bread has been loaded with nut flours and only one banana at that!

Newsflash, it is called banana bread for a reason; so I wanted to make it about bananas. And there was no better way then to throw four of them in here. So with that, I give you what I am naming my Paleo Banana Bread. Oh yea... the bananas don't even need to be overly ripe!

You can have this recipe from ingredients to batter and in the oven in 5 minutes, or less. I timed it :) When you are finished baking, slather this in some grass-fed butter and drizzle with raw honey. Maybe add some cinnamon, some chocolate chips, some candied walnuts ... the options are endless!

Just typing this post makes my mouth water again. Time to get creative with some more flavor combinations to keep this recipe evolving perfectly. Hey, maybe I can even put together a free e-book on all the different ways you can enjoy this banana bread. Leave me a comment if that is something you would like to see, I will see what I can do. Go get your banana bread going now!!! And as always, enjoy!

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit

2. Combine your bananas, eggs, and nut butter, and grass-fed butter in a blendtec, blender, food processor, or mixing bowl and mix well (if using a mixing bowl you need a good hand-mixer)

3. Once all of your ingredients are blended, add in your coconut flour, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, vanilla, and sea salt and mix well

4. Pour your batter in a silicon pan and spread it evenly (you can use a loaf pan as well, just grease it well)

5. Place in your preheated oven and bake for 55-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean

6. Remove from oven and flip your bread out onto a cooling rack

7. Slice and serve

Variations

2. Chocolate Blueberry - Add 1 cup of fresh blueberries and 1/2 cup of cocoa powder

Vegan Banana Blondies

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
I had been overbuying bananas on sale lately and realized there's no way we were going to eat them all, unless I got busy baking.

Problem is, since watching Robert Lustig's video "The Bitter Truth" calling sugar a poison, I can hardly bring myself to use sugar, even when baking sweets. The other day, I prepared my favorite (PPK's) banana bread recipe minus sugar for the first time, and honestly thought it could have done with a few chocolate chips. So, when a recipe calls for chocolate chips-even semi-sweet ones-like this one for banana blondies, it wasn't a difficult choice to leave the sugar out of the blondie dough.

Until recently, I had routinely cut the amount of sugar in recipes by half, or even two-thirds, in addition to reducing processed fat like oil and margarine to a minimum. As time went on, I found the taste was often still too sweet, but I didn't reduce sugar further for fear of ruining the original recipe or winding up with something friends or house guests would find inedible!

In the end, the sugarless banana bread tasted great as-is, especially lightly toasted. The blondies were satisfying but slightly heavy, so I plan to add a little baking powder next time (like Isa) and try substituting spelt flour for whole wheat flour, too.

As for sugar, if they don't taste sweet enough, you can always add more next time, but why not try using fruit and other add-ins (sparingly) to bring out the natural sweetness and nutrition instead?
Ingredients:
1/4 cup oil

2-3 ripe bananas, mashed

1 tsp vanilla

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 cup peanut butter

1/4 cup almonds, roughly chopped

1/4 cup walnuts, roughly chopped

Banana and Coconut Bread

Banana and Coconut Bread

One of my favourite breads of all time is banana bread. I bake lots of it in my kitchen and love to vary the ingredients depending on how I feel or the result I want to achieve. I have about 5 purely delicious banana bread recipes and my Banana Chia + Coconut Bread Rocks! I love it because it's so simple to make and it's yummy on it's own or wonderful with all sorts of toppings such as almond butter, ricotta + manuka honey, tahini or smashed banana and organic yoghurt. Perfect with a cup of green tea or Immune boosting green smoothie for breakfast.

What's great about it

Bananas are a terrific energy food and a great source of potassium, an essential mineral for maintaining normal blood pressure and heart function. They add moisture and sweetness to baked goods, which means you can reduce the amount of sweetener and oil considerably. Coconut flour is packed with soluble fibre that is great for healthy digestion and helping to lower cholesterol. The chia seed pumps up the omega 3 in the bread. I love using macadamia nut oil when baking, it's a delicious source of monounsaturated fats that can help support good health and wellbeing.
