OK: as weird as this combo may sound; don’t let that deter you from trying this. You are literally 7 ingredients away from some of the best banana bread of your life. Take it from this banana bread monster (AKA: connoisseur) 😉 I have tried baking brownies with canned chickpeas; but this one is completely different. Like, totally different texture altogether. Say H-E-L-L-O to chickpea (or fava) flour! It’s super affordable and naturally gluten-free. It looks like a light, yellow-ish flour; somewhat similar to cornmeal. It’s not dense nor will your baked goods feel heavy, either.
