Super High-Fiber Chocolate Banana Bread (GF/DF/No Added Sweeteners)

Ingredients:

• 3 very ripe bananas (approximately 300g peeled)

• 80g coconut oil, melted

• 2 eggs

• 5ml (1 teaspoon) vanilla extract

• 80g coconut flour

• 30g unsweetened cacao powder

• 40g ground flaxseed

• 10g psyllium husk powder

• 5g (1 teaspoon) baking soda

• 3g (1/2 teaspoon) salt

• 120-180ml (8-12 tablespoons) almond milk or oat milk

Preheat your oven to 175°C and line a loaf pan with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, mash the bananas until smooth.

Add the melted coconut oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix well.

In a separate bowl, combine the coconut flour, cacao powder, ground flaxseed, psyllium husk powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

Rose Ferguson welcoming my childhood friend Roshni Savjani to the gang! We go way back .. is looking for her ultimate gut health reset kicking in! ❤️ It’s so nice to have a friend on this journey too xxx

Anyone had lymphatic drainage done? I’ve booked myself in next Friday … excited! Keen to see what the fuss is about 🤷‍♀️

Heyyy Rose - here’s one I struggle with sometimes, perhaps others too. Fluoride vs normal paste? I saw this and it triggered me whether change in paste offers better gut health or is it bonkers? Would love your view, please xx https://gutology.co.uk/pages/toothpaste-quiz?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAaZyVqhnrPRMocLe1ACe5KMaPqRknDRNcB1MY8aQbR8FcvkGkyl-RszREig_aem_HOjcDCxkZgcoju-cqGxakw

Hey Rose. I checked into your whole foods checkin, thank you so much for answering my Q’s on fasting / cycles and Magnesium - super helpful. I did pick up on your term seed cycling, I see a lot of noise about it on Insta too. Pumpkin seeds / sunflower seeds + flaxseed are semi always part of my one a day of late. Ought we be concerned with seed cycling … as in, it it for everyone or just if you get really hormonal? Just curious xx 

Very random ask, but I’ll do it anyway. I’m not a reader but with my new sense of journaling, wellness and adrenal recovery as my focus, I’d like to take something engaging to read on holiday… . Can you please  hit me up book recommendations that they can’t put down, please? 😍 Xx 

Hiii Rose, happy Monday! Does this Plenish oat GF newbie get a hit or a miss from you please? X

No judging please - I don’t buy the Sun paper 🤣 but my journalist friend writes for them and I love her stories (naturally) thought I’d share here .. I can relate, I bet some of you can too!
