But then Doodle came along and now we have a problem: butter.

But even reducing the amounts in some baked goods hasn&#8217;t helped and they still come out greasy and, I think, yucky. And despite my love for it and my kids now loving to help make it, Big Bird&#8217;s Banana Bread is unfortunately one of those recipes.<\/p>\n<p>But I finally found the solution to a non-greasy but still delicious and dairy free version and here&#8217;s the recipe:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/2016\/11\/10\/gluten-and-dairy-free-banana-bread\/banana-bread-fb\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11960\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11960\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-fb.png\" alt=\"Allergy Friendly Banana Bread: Easy for kids to make and gluten, dairy, egg, soy, corn free\" width=\"748\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-fb.png 748w, https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-fb-300x193.png 300w, https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-fb-600x385.png 600w, https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-fb-390x250.png 390w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 748px) 100vw, 748px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Gluten and Dairy Free Banana Bread<\/h2>\n<p>You&#8217;ll need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2 ripe Bananas<\/li>\n<li>1 Applesauce cup (4 ounces)<\/li>\n<li>3 tablespoons Coconut Oil<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup Honey<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon Baking Soda<\/li>\n<li>1 cup oat flour (whole wheat flour works as well\u00a0if not going for gluten free but I do not recommend substituting all purpose flour as the consistency doesn&#8217;t come out right.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ol>\n<li>Mash up the bananas and combine with the applesauce, coconut oil and honey.<\/li>\n<li>Add the baking soda and flour and mix until combined.<\/li>\n<li>Bake at 350 degrees for an hour.<\/li>\n<li>Slice and serve plain or topped with honey, non-dairy margarine or both!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/532269249695530915\/\">Pin it!<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/532269249695530915\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11961\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11961 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-698x1024.png\" alt=\"Allergy Friendly Banana Bread: Easy for kids to make and gluten, dairy, egg, soy, corn free\" width=\"698\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-698x1024.png 698w, https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-300x440.png 300w, https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-600x880.png 600w, https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-170x250.png 170w, https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-205x300.png 205w, https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread-390x572.png 390w, https:\/\/www.beyondmommying.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/banana-bread.png 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 698px) 100vw, 698px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the very first recipes I ever cooked by myself growing up was Big Bird&#8217;s Banana Bread.
