Dry Ingredients

1 ¾ cup oat flour (certified gluten-free, if possible)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 scoop Beyond Collagen®

Wet Ingredients

2 eggs
1 cup ripe mashed banana
1/4 cup coconut oil (melted, at room temperature)
1/2 cup almond milk
1 teaspoon vanilla

Cinnamon Swirl:

1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons cinnamon

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 ℉. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. 

In a large mixing bowl, combine your dry ingredients. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine your wet ingredients. Add your wet ingredients to your dry ingredients and stir until well combined. Let your batter rest for a few minutes for the oats to soak up the wet ingredients. In a small bowl, combine your cinnamon swirl ingredients. Set aside 2 tablespoons of this mixture for sprinkling the top of your bread with, if you'd like.

Add half of your bread batter to your loaf pan. Sprinkle your cinnamon swirl ingredients across the batter, creating an even layer of cinnamon sugar to create the cinnamon swirl. Spoon the other half of your bread batter across the top of your bread pan. Using a knife, swirl the batter down the center of the loaf pan. Sprinkle with the 2 tablespoons of cinnamon sugar that were set aside across the top of your bread. Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes. Let cool. Lift your bread out of the bread pan with the parchment paper sticking out of the sides. Slice and devour!
