Chocolate Chip Banana Squares | Gluten Free, Vegan Desserts

 

Chocolate Chip Banana Squares | Gluten-free, Vegan

1 1/2 C. gluten-free flour (I use a mix of Bob's Red Mill white rice flour, tapioca flour, potato starch)

1/2 tsp. gluten free baking soda

1/2 tsp. baking powder (I like Rumford's because it's aluminum-free)

1/4 tsp. salt

2 ripe bananas, mashed

5 Tbs. coconut oil (or any vegetable oil)

3/4 C. cold water

1 tsp. vanilla

1/2 c. chocolate chips (Enjoy Life are gluten, dairy, soy, nut -free).
If walnuts weren't an issue for me, I would have added 1/2 C. of those as well.

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Line a 9x9 square cake pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

In a bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, mash bananas and stir in oil, water, and vanilla until well blended. Make a well in dry ingredients and pour in wet mixture. Stir until just blended. Add in chocolate chips and give it one last toss. Pour into prepared cake sheet. 

Bake 40 min, or until toothpick comes out clean.
