Notes:

This recipe creates a gluten-free flour blend from scratch. To save time, packaged gluten-free flour blend such as Bob’s Red Mill Gluten-free flour blend can be used. Avoid using firm bananas as they will be more difficult to mash. Table salt is fine instead of Himalayan salt. Raisins, craisins or chocolate chips can be used with or instead of pecans.
