Whole Wheat Einkorn Banana Bread – Honey Sweetened

Naturally Sweetened, Whole Wheat Einkorn Banana Bread | myhumblekitchen.com

Two of my favorite ways to use ripe bananas are in double chocolate chip banana muffins and whole wheat einkorn banana bread. I generally bake my family a batch of muffins or sweet bread per week. For a busy homeschooling family like mine, it allows for quick breakfasts on the go!

What I most enjoy about some of the goods I bake, like my upside down apple muffins, butternut squash chocolate chip muffins, or this whole wheat einkorn banana bread, is that it uses fruit as a natural sweetener. When using fruit as sweeteners (applesauce, bananas, squash), I can use less additional sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, and coconut palm sugar.

For my whole wheat einkorn banana muffins, I only had to use a 1/2 cup of honey for the entire loaf. The four ripe bananas needed to make this recipe give it just the right amount of sweetness you’d expect of a good banana bread and enough moisture to keep for 4-5 days.

Serve it warm with a pat of grass-fed butter … so good!

Honey Sweetened, Whole Wheat Einkorn Banana Bread

Honey Sweetened, Whole Wheat Einkorn Banana Bread

Whole Wheat Einkorn Banana Bread. Gently sweetened with a bit of honey and moist to last 4-5 days like a good banana bread should.

Ingredients:

  • 1 stick butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 4 ripe bananas
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups whole wheat einkorn flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Method:

  1. Preheat oven to 350F.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter and honey at medium-high speed.
  3. While the butter and honey are mixing, in a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Once the butter and honey are creamed, lower the speed to medium and beat in the bananas until pureed. Once the bananas have been incorporated, add the eggs and vanilla extract.
  5. Lower the speed to low, and 1/4 cup at a time, mix in the dry ingredients until just mixed through. Do not over-mix.
  6. Pour the batter into a parchment paper lined loaf pan and bake at 350F for 50-55 minutes or until baked through.

    Your recipes look great! Do you think I could use Sprouted Einkorn flour in your recipes or would I need to make an adjustment to the amount?

      When using the sprouted einkorn, I usually add about an extra 1/4 cup of flour per cup of regular einkorn. It seems lighter. Hope that helps!

    Do you have more of a measurement on the 4 bananas? Do you think 1 cup, 1 1/2 cup?
