XO Baking Co. Banana Bread Mix...

This weekend I made a Banana bread with X O Baking Co.'s banana bread mix. I have tried several of their mixes before and have enjoyed them all, and this mix was no exception.

The mix makes a 9x5 loaf of bread and it was delicious and moist. I chose not to add the optional nuts or chocolate chips for my husbands sake, but I am sure it would have been even more enjoyable if I had.

The mix contains coconut flour, which impresses this baker, as it adds a little dietary fiber to the bread. You will find no rice or soy in this mix, and it is all natural. The mix also contains 0g fat or cholesterol, and only 6g of sugar per serving. It  comes in a thick foil package to preserve freshness, which is also self sealing. Their mixes are certified  gluten free, and are Kosher as well.

The Banana Bread was moist and had great bendability, no crumbling here...The light taste of the bananas was the highlight of the bread, with not even a hint of the coconut flour. This is a mix well worth writing home about! It was great smothered in butter, or without. A real go to treat in this taste testers opinion. You can visit their site at XO Baking Co. for their other great gluten free mixes as well. They have added 4 new mixes to their line: Oatmeal Cookie , Vanilla Cupcakes with Frosting, Chocolate Cupcake Mix with Frosting, and Pound Cake. I can't wait to try them all! I hope you enjoy.

Have a great wheat free day today.
