1/4 cup nuts
1 3/4 cups sifted amaranth flour or sifted brown rice flour
1/2 cup arrowroot
2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1 1/2 cups very ripe mashed bananas
1/4 cup oil
1/4 cup honey
2 eggs
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract


Process the 1/4 cup nuts in a blender until finely ground. Mix the ground nuts with the flour, arrowroot and baking soda in a large bowl. Stir in the 1/2 cup chopped nuts.

In a different bowl, combine bananas, oil, honey, eggs, lemon juice and vanilla. Mix well. Pour into the flour mixture and mix with a few swift strokes but do not over mix.

Pour into a greased 9 x 5 loaf pan or two 7 x 3 pans. Bake the large loaf for 55 to 60 minutes. Bake the small loaves for 45 minutes. Test with a cake tester inserted in the middle. Let stand in pan for 10 minutes then turn onto a wire rack to cool.
