Paleo Tahini Banana Bread {Gluten Free, Sugar Free, Dairy Free}

Paleo Tahini Banana Bread - that's a lot to take in. Let's break it down...

Paleo: ya know, nothing processed, all real food, etc...

Tahini: creamy, delicious goodness & one of the best sources of calcium

Banana Bread: basically the best treat, but I didn't really need to tell you that

Are you on board yet?

The 2 main ingredients of this bread are in the title: Tahini & Banana. Add some almond flour to give it a "bready" texture, some eggs to bind it all together, and a touch of honey to sweeten it ever-so-slightly, and that's it! You could also leave the honey out and make it less sweet. OR, you could add in chocolate chips and make it more sweet. Go crazy.

just look at that bite!
