Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1½ cups Oat Flour
- ¾ teaspoon Baking Soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
Wet Ingredients
- 1 Ripe Banana
- 1 Egg
- ¼ cup Coconut Milk
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Prepare your mini loaf pans by greasing them with coconut oil if they are not non-stick, or line the bottom with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the oat flour, baking soda, and ground cinnamon thoroughly to ensure even distribution of leavening and spice.
- Mash Banana: In a separate mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth and creamy, creating a natural sweet base for the bread.
- Add Wet Ingredients: To the mashed banana, add the egg and coconut milk. Mix well until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mixture is smooth.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet banana mixture. Use a mixer or a sturdy spoon to blend the batter until homogenous and without lumps.
- Divide Batter: Evenly divide the batter between the two prepared mini loaf pans, smoothing the top to ensure even baking.
- Bake the Bread: Place the pans in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, indicating doneness.
- Cool the Bread: Remove the loaves from the pans and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely to room temperature before slicing and serving to your dog.
