- 1/2 cup of brown sugar
- 2 large eggs, beaten

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of gluten-free all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.

- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.

Gluten free banana bread has a rich history, evolving from traditional banana bread recipes to cater to those with gluten sensitivities. Chefs and home bakers have experimented with alternative flours like almond, coconut, or oat to create a moist and flavorful loaf. This beloved treat gained popularity in the health-conscious communities of California and New York, where innovative chefs at renowned bakeries like Tartine in San Francisco and Bouchon Bakery in New York City perfected their gluten-free versions. Today, the best gluten-free banana bread can be found in specialty bakeries and cafes that prioritize quality ingredients and meticulous baking techniques. The key to a perfect loaf lies in ripe, mashed bananas and the right blend of gluten-free flours to achieve a moist, tender crumb. For a unique twist, some bakers add chopped nuts or chocolate chips for extra indulgence.
