Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas, mashed
  • 1/2 cup tahini
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup pistachios, chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, mix the mashed bananas, tahini, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Add the almond flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt, stirring until just combined.
  • Fold in the chopped pistachios, reserving some for topping.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and sprinkle the remaining pistachios on top.
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let cool before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Make sure the bananas are fully ripe for the best flavor and moisture.
  • If you don’t have pistachios, you can substitute with other nuts like walnuts or almonds.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature or in the fridge for longer freshness.
