Ingredients

  • ½ cup oat flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons chopped walnuts
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened dried cherries or other dried fruit, chopped
  • 2 ripe bananas, 1 peeled and mashed (about ½ cup), 1 peeled and thinly sliced crosswise
  • ⅓ cup oat milk beverage (can sub another dairy-free milk beverage)
  • 3 tablespoons dairy-free buttery spread, melted
  • 3 tablespoons oil (your favorite type for baking)
  • ¼ cup almond butter, for serving

Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the wheat flour, oat flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the walnuts and cherries.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mashed banana, oat milk, and buttery spread until relatively smooth.
  3. Stir the banana mixture into the flour mixture until incorporated.
  4. Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and knead just until the dough comes together.
