Healthy Banana Bread Recipe With Spelt Flour

Spelt banana bread is naturally vegan and made extra delicious with chopped pecans and chocolate chunks. 10 ingredients and simple to make.

It is honestly difficult to gauge what is appropriate to share right now. I had a roundup style post of pantry-friendly recipes ready to go, but it all had such strong doomsday-ish undertones to me. I know that these recipes are practical and needed for folks working through this collective unknown. I also know that as this time period of social distancing goes on, I’ll probably be sharing that content eventually, but right now I’m looking to cook for comfort as much as possible. Enjoying simple things in the moment.

There are so many messages that we’re being bombarded with on the news and social media right now, especially in the whole food and wellness community. Take vitamin C, get daily exercise, make sure you’re eating vegetables, go outside, sleep for at least 6 hours a day, don’t eat sugar, don’t drink alcohol, take adaptogens (uuuugh), engage in daily self-care practices, the list goes on.

Spelt Banana Bread With Pecans & Chocolate Chunks

All of these things are fine if you can do them, but if you’re experiencing acute levels of anxiety with no access to medication/support and you also have children to look after, sufficient sleep and self-care goes out the window fast. I saw a heartbreaking photograph of a frail elderly man staring forlornly at a wall of empty shelves at a grocery shore. Is someone going to scream at him to eat vegetables? If you’re living pay check to pay check and your employer just closed up shop, adaptogens are seriously the dumbest thing to be spending your money on. People with a platform: please think about your privilege and consider perspectives outside of your immediate awareness as you share new content right now.

I always ask myself if what I’m posting is helpful or useful. This feels especially vital in times of uncertainty. I am aiming to use my platform to spread moments of calm, positive energy (that’s also locked in on the seriousness of it all), and obviously some home cooking inspiration. This is a defining moment for all of us. I am trying to be mindful, useful, and compassionate.

There will be pantry-friendly recipes to come and of course I will be much more diligent on substitution questions as they come in. We all have to take this social distancing responsibility seriously to help those most at risk and to lessen the burden on health and medical professionals. If this means cooking and attempting to remix rice and beans for weeks at a time, I think we can do that. If you need help, I’m here.

While I managed to pick up a bag of all-purpose white flour during my last grocery store trip, whole wheat flour has been eluding me. Luckily, I enjoy baking with spelt flour, and there doesn’t seem to be a shortage of that around here.

Spelt is an ancient whole grain in the same family as wheat, barley and rye. It has a nutty flavour, and once the grain is milled into flour, it has a similar light texture as whole wheat flour. In fact, you can usually substitute spelt flour in recipes that call for whole wheat flour.

Spelt flour is a good source of dietary fibre, protein, vitamins and minerals. And, if you have a sensitivity to wheat, you may have an easier time digesting spelt flour since it contains more water and has a higher fibre content.
