Cassava flour is one of my favorite paleo baking flours, but can be tricky to work with if you're unfamiliar with it.

Vegan Gluten Free Banana Bread

If you follow my blog, you know I use quite a bit of cassava flour in my baking. From yeast free cassava bread, to cassava flour cookies, and muffins made with cassava flour, this grain free flour makes a frequent appearance.

Cassava flour comes from from the cassava (or yuca) root. The cassava root is peeled, dried and ground to make cassava flour.

You can probably guess that cassava flour is grain free and paleo friendly since I use it in so many of my recipes. It can be substituted at 1:1 ratio (by weight) for all purpose flour and some gluten free flour blends.

Now, it's important not to confuse cassava flour with tapioca starch. Yes, they both come from the cassava root, but they are very different.

Tapiocais the extracted starch of the cassava root. Whereas, cassava flour comes from the whole cassava root. They serve very different purposes in baking and cooking and are not interchangeable.

My favorite brand of cassava flour isOtto's Cassava Flour. They have the highest quality cassava flour and it works better for Paleo baking than any other brand I've tried.

Otto's Cassava Flour peels, dries and then grinds their cassava into a very fine flour. They also ensure that every batch is free of the top 8 allergens.

Gluten Free Banana Bread

This easy cassava banana bread recipe calls for ripe bananas. I used bananas that were yellow with a few brown spots. Completely yellow or extra ripe bananas should work as well.

No egg substitutions or replacements have been tested for this Paleo banana bread. Substituting the eggs will most likely result in a gummy banana bread with an undesirable texture.

I do not recommend removing the oil from this recipe. However, the avocado oil may be substituted with another oil such as olive oil. I have tried many variations of this cassava bread without oil, or using less and found that the texture was too dense and dry. So please stick to ¼ cup for best results.

A combination of cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg are used to provide a delicious, flavorful and earthy banana bread. This is a lovely flavor combination, but all spices are optional.

The only equipment required for making this banana bread batter is a bowl and a whisk. Aren't one bowl recipes just the best?!

Add the remaining ingredients to the mixing bowl and whisk until the batter is a smooth, consistent texture. You may also add mix-ins like chocolate chips, chopped nuts or dried fruit.

Next, pour the batter into the lined baking pan. Pop the bread in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 40 minutes. The loaf should be just slightly under-baked when done.

After baking, remove the loaf from the oven, cool 10 minutes in the baking pan, then transfer to a wire cooling rack.

This cassava flour bread recipe is best stored in the fridge up to one week, in an air tight container. You can also slice the bread and store it in the freezer up to one month.

Cassava

I do not recommend removing or substituting the oil in this paleo banana bread recipe. However, any oil that is liquid at room temperature (like olive oil) will work as a substitute for the avocado oil.

Cassava flour is great for baking and cooking. It can be used as a thickener in soup, gravy and sauces. It's also excellent for making muffins, breads, cookies, pancakes, etc. Basically anything you'd want to make with all purpose flour can be made with cassava flour instead.

Vegan Gluten Free Bread

Yes! Cassava flour is naturally gluten free and more easily digestible than conventionally processed white flour. Even better, purchasing an organic cassava flour ensures that no glyphosate was used, which is a huge gut irritant and microbiome disrupter.

All of the recipes on my site are Paleo friendly, and many use cassava flour. Here are a few of my favorite Paleo cassava flour recipes:
