How to Make the Perfect Gluten-Free Vegan Banana Bread in few simple steps:

• add the milk and whisk

• add starch, rice and almond flour
• add baking powder and cinnamon and mix everything until you have a smooth batter
• in a small bowl mix part of the chocolate chips with a teaspoon of rice flour until evenly coated (this will prevent the choco chips to drop at the bottom of the loaf while baking)
• pour in the loaf pan and sprinkle with more chocolate chips

• bake in the pre-heated oven and once ready let rest out of the oven for at least one hour before slicing
• store it in an airtight container to keep it soft for a couple days

Baking in grams

I cook and bake in grams as they are more accurate (than cups) when measuring ingredients. This is especially important when it comes to gluten free and vegan recipes.
Also, I weigh both dry and wet ingredients in grams and most of the time I share one- or two-bowl recipes, to make everything easier for you.
A simple affordable kitchen scale is definitely a useful and worthy investment for your gluten free cooking.
So you will simply need to place the bowl on the scale and weigh ingredients as you go!
