Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup organic evaporated cane juice crystals
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups Einkorn Flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 cup sour cream

- 1/2 cup walnuts (optional)
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, stir together the melted butter and cane juice crystals.
- Add the eggs and vanilla; mix well.
- In a separate bowl, combine the Einkorn Flour, baking soda, and sea salt. Stir into the butter mixture until smooth.
- Fold in the sour cream and bananas (and walnuts, if using). Spread evenly into the prepared pan.
- Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean. Cool loaf in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Making this today with Cinnamon Vitality. Smells amazing! Can't wait to try it!
I need to watch my sugar and calorie intake. So, I used erythritol instead of evaporated cane juice crystals and light butter. The best lower carb dessert I have ever made. Very delicious - thank you for the initial recipe.
Great recipe! Very moist and tender. I substituted some of the cane juice with honey and molasses. Love using Einkorn flour instead of GMO wheat flour.
This is some seriously good banana bread! Thanks so much for the recipe, which will replace my standby favorite family recipe using modern wheat. This tastes even better and with the einkorn is much healthier.
Hi I am looking for bread machine recipe for einkorn. I tried a loaf on the shorter cycle for basic bread but wondering if that is to many kneads not enough rising because it is quite low very heavy tastes amazing. Should i just the whole wheat setting on my machine which has a longer rise time
Thank you so much for this delicious recipe. I led a class for a small group of ladies and used YL Einkorn flour. We had great success and everyone took home a loaf of this delicious banana bread.
Hello, What is the difference between the YL Einkorn Pancake Mix and the YL Einkorn Flour? I have extra Pancake Mix and would like to make scones or the banana bread. What would be the problem with using the Pancake Mix for baking? Thanks in advance!
Hi Stephanie. In addition to Einkorn Flour, the Einkorn Pancake Mix contains Brown rice flour, Amaranth flour, Tapioca flour, Sorghum flour (Sorghum bicolor), and Dhokla flour (Indian flour made from chickpeas). Many individuals have successfully used the Einkorn Pancake Mix in baking. In past blog post, we included a baguette recipe using the mix: . Enjoy and happy baking!
I used Einkorn Flour for Irish Brownies and it was awesome. I use it to make pancakes and it works super!
Irish brownies??? Can you share your recipe? ylgroundedsouls@gmail.com Thank you!
I used Einkorn Flour in my bread machine one time. While the bread was dense, it was good. I've also used it for pancakes. They aren't as fluffy but they taste great. In each of these I just substituted 1 for 1 of regular flour.
My question on the above delicious sounding recipe is, can organic natural sugar crystals be substituted for the organic evaporated cane juice crystals? Hopefully someone can answer this. Thank you.
Yes Margaret, you can substitute organic natural sugar crystals for the organic evaporated can juice crystals. We hope you enjoy the recipe!
