INGREDIENTS
- ¾ cup butter, softened
- 1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups organic or coconut sugar
- 4 bananas
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 cups gluten free all purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups chopped pecans, divided
Orange Glaze
INSTRUCTIONS
- In a large bowl cream with a mixer the butter, cream cheese and sugar until creamy and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time. Beat in bananas and vanilla.
- Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt, and add gradually to the creamy mixture. Fold in one cup pecans.
- Transfer to two greased 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pans. Sprinkle with remaining pecans.
- Bake at 350 F for 1 hour or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- In a small bowl whisk together orange zest, juice and honey. Drizzle over loaves after cooling the loaves for 10 minutes. I like to double the orange glaze and drizzle some over each piece served.
