Grain-free Banana Bread Biscuits

Don’t look any further for grain-free banana bread biscuits!

I recently was going through Tammy Credicott’s cookbook Paleo Indulgences and found a recipe for sweet potato thyme biscuits. While I liked the recipe in terms of look and consistency, I was immediately imagining that recipe as a sweet banana bread-style biscuit.

I basically substituted the sweet potato with mashed banana, added crushed walnuts, and a handful of dark chocolate chips. Et voila! I had delicious grain-free banana bread biscuits.

The texture is moist and soft similar to grain-free muffins, but most importantly, I don’t need muffin cups. The batter has a consistency which allows using an ice cream scoop to portion the biscuits onto a with parchment paper lined baking tray.

Get creative and use different flavor options

This is a nice basic recipe, which can be used for different flavor variants such as apple-cinnamon, carrot cake, or pumpkin spice.
