Chocolate Banana Bread with Spelt Flour

by Georgie Fox
Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Ah yes, spelt flour. Quite possibly the king of ancient grains. This grain is lower in gluten, which can act as an inflammatory substance for some. My family has gluten-sensitive individuals that don’t often react to spelt, unlike the way they react to traditional wheat.

Obviously, be cautious and use your own judgement when trying this recipe if you have gluten sensitivities.

Spelt was revered by the Romans as a staple grain. A source of calories that could feed armies, since there was no need for refrigeration. Spelt is naturally non-GMO, since it existed long before this technology came to be.

This spelt recipe is suitable for beginners. This moist, warm delicious banana bread is a family favorite! 😊
