Ideal as a paleo snack, breakfast slice or afternoon treat, naturally sweetened with fruit and applesauce.
About this recipe
Paleo Banana Blueberry Loaf with the Thermomix TM7 is the kind of healthy cake recipe that fits effortlessly into a paleo or gluten-free weekly menu. Made with ripe bananas, eggs, almond butter, applesauce and coconut flour, this loaf delivers a moist, tender crumb bursting with juicy blueberries and a hint of cinnamon — all without grains, dairy or refined sugar. The all-in-one kitchen machine blends the batter to a velvety, lump-free consistency in the mixing bowl, which matters especially with coconut flour, a notoriously thirsty ingredient that clumps easily by hand. The built-in scale weighs each ingredient directly into the bowl, keeping the delicate paleo ratios exact so the loaf never turns dry or dense. Serve a slice as a quick breakfast with coffee, pack it into a lunchbox, or offer it as an afternoon snack when friends visit. Because the sweetness comes purely from bananas and applesauce, it is a treat the whole family can enjoy.
Preparation tips
- Use very ripe bananas with plenty of brown spots: they blend more smoothly in the Thermomix bowl and give the loaf its natural sweetness, meaning you can skip any added sugar entirely.
- Let the loaf cool completely in the tin before slicing, as coconut flour bakes continue to set while resting; a cold loaf cuts into neat slices that hold together beautifully for lunchboxes.
- Swap the blueberries for frozen berries straight from the freezer, but toss them in a little coconut flour first so they stay suspended in the batter instead of sinking to the bottom during baking.
Recipe variations
- Autumn version: replace the blueberries with diced apple and add a pinch of nutmeg alongside the cinnamon for a cosy seasonal loaf that pairs wonderfully with a hot cup of tea on a cold afternoon.
- Chocolate lovers variant: fold through dark chocolate chunks (at least 70% cacao for paleo) and a spoonful of cacao powder with the coconut flour for a banana-chocolate loaf that still contains no grains or dairy.
