Banana Flour Blueberry Streusel Bread with a Chocolate Drizzle

This streusel bread is like a banana bread, blueberry bread, and crumb cake all put together; the result is SO perfect! The banana bread is fluffy and light, the blueberries stay intact and juicy, and the crumb topping adds great texture and flavor. And to top it all off, I drizzle on some dark chocolate! It completes this dessert/snack/breakfast bread! 
After describing how delicious this banana blueberry streusel bread is, you may think it's not healthy; it is actually super healthy! It is gluten free and grain free! WEDO Banana flour, a gluten free flour, gives this bread a fluffy and light texture! There is no sugar added to this bread; the bananas in the batter make this bread perfectly sweet! 
First, add crumbs to bottom of bundt cake pan..
Then pour in batter...
After baking!
Onto the recipe!


Banana Flour Blueberry Streusel Bread with a Chocolate Drizzle 

Bread Ingredients: 
  • 3/4 cup WEDO banana flour 
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon xantham gum
  • 5 medium sized ripe bananas, mashed
  • 4 tablespoons grass-fed butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/3 cup almond milk (coconut milk will work too)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries 
Crumb Topping Ingredients:
  • 1/3 cup WEDO banana flour 
  • 3 tablespoons coconut sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
Chocolate Drizzle Ingredients: 
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (coconut milk will work too)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a bundt cake pan with coconut oil.

First, we are going to make the crumb topping! Whisk together banana flour, coconut sugar, and melted butter. Place on bottom of bundt cake pan, and spread out evenly. 

Whisk together banana flour, baking powder, and xantham gum in a large bowl. Whisk in mashed bananas, butter, vanilla extract, apple cider vinegar, almond milk, and eggs. Once thoroughly combined, fold in blueberries. Pour batter into bundt cake pan and tap on counter to even out the batter. Place in oven for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Once the bread has finished baking, we are going to make the chocolate drizzle! Heat chocolate chips, coconut oil, and almond milk in double boiler over medium heat. Stir constantly, until chocolate has melted. Drizzle all over bread, and then put some blueberries, chocolate chips, and banana slices on top to garnish! Enjoy!!
