Prep time: 15 minutes

Cooking time: 45 minutes

Method

• In a small bowl, whisk together the flaxseed meal and water. Let stand for 5-10 minutes, or until a gel-like texture forms.
• In a large bowl, combine the quinoa flakes, oat flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.
• In a smaller bowl, mash the bananas. Add the flax mixture, applesauce, and maple syrup, and whisk well to combine.
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until well incorporated.
• Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven, cover the pan with aluminum foil, and bake for another 15 minutes, or until a toothpick or sharp knife inserted into the centre of the loaf comes out clean.
