Breads From Anna™ Banana Bread Mix (Gluten-Free, Soy-Free) PDF Print E-mail

We were amazed that this banana bread was gluten-free!  The texture was perfect.  It was very moist and delicate, yet not too crumbly.  This could easily be mistaken for a wheat flour-based bread.  Although I do not follow a strictly gluten free diet, I love to bake, and I like to mix up the grains I use.  In fact, I have trialed many a gluten-free breads, but never with results that would compare to Anna’s.  Equally pleasing, the flavor is a delicious blend of unique, yet healthy, ingredients.  It was sweet, but not too sweet due to the slightly contrasting, yet very complimentary flavors of the flours used. 
Always a bonus, the preparation was quite simple.  Just add some mashed ripe bananas (there always seems to be a few of these around), 1/3 cup of oil, 2 large eggs, and some nuts if desired.  I made just two small alterations to the directions.  Rather than dusting the bread pan with rice flour, I used sugar for an extra hint of sweetness.  Also, it stated a one-hour bake time, but the bread was completely done at 50 minutes, and my oven does not typically bake products more quickly than the suggested times. 
Worth an extra note, Breads From Anna™ Mixes are an excellent gift quality item as well.  Companies such as this prove that environmentally friendly packaging can look fantastic.  They use a simple paper bag, dressed up with very colorful and appetizing labels. 

  • Pros: Gluten-free; Gift quality and environmental packaging; Excellent texture and flavor; Relatively low in fat; Very high in iron (440% of the RDI)
  • Cons: A bit high in sodium, Very high in iron, may not be good for some
