How to Make Elizabeth Hasselbeck’s Famous Gluten-Free Banana Bread

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at NCSU chapter.

Ever tried gluten-free bread?

Yeah, ew. That was my reaction too. The bread lacks that very thing that makes it bread – an elastic dough that makes each bite truly scrumptious. I recently tried a banana bread recipe constructed by Elizabeth Hasselbeck, an American television personality with a surprising talent in the kitchen. Check out this fabulous banana bread recipe that brings maximum taste and texture using minimum ingredients.

    Transfer the loaf pan to a wire rack and let it cool for 5 minutes. Then lift the bread out of the pan and and let it cool completely on the wire rack before slicing.
