Banana Matcha Pound Cake (Vegan & Gluten Free)

If you've been following me on snapchat you know I've been going recipe crazy with matcha lately. This sweet treat is packed with fiber & antioxidants- actually making it the perfect pre-workout snack. As always, I'm not going to bore you with an essay on why I like this dish but get right into it. Here's what you need ;) 

Ingredients: 

• Apprx. 2 cups Oat Flour (you can make this if you have whole oats from home and blend them until the mixture becomes flour-like.) 
• 1 small apple (blend to make apple sauce)- this will serve as a binder much like egg! Don't worry, you can't taste the apple either :) 
• 1 Banana 
• tiny bit of coconut palm sugar (add as much or as little as you'd like for sweet taste) 
• tiny bit of maple syrup 
• 2 tbsp Matcha Powder

Steps:

• Blend oat flour, apple, banana, matcha powder & coconut palm sugar.  
• Pour mixture into mini loaf pan  [this recipe makes just enough for this size] 
• preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit. 
• bake for 30 minutes 
• remove after baking and drizzle maple syrup  on top
• EAT UP

Here's to mindful eating,
