WHAT GLUTEN FREE FLOUR IS BEST FOR BANANA BREAD? 

Almond flour is gluten-free so it can be a little tricky when using it in recipes because it does not react the way regular flour does. It tends to bake in a more dense form and doesn’t rise much. It is great in banana bread because you can’t tell the difference and banana bread is usually a bit dense and moist.Best Gluten-Free Banana BreadPin
