Oh, banana bread. You’ve always had my heart

Buying nuts, seeds, paleo flours, sugar-free sweeteners, and coconut products can get expensive quick. My best advice is to buy your products in bulk, from places like Amazon or Costco. I like to buy my nuts and seeds (like these sunflower seeds) from Amazon’s ‘Yupik’ brand, which seem to be the cheapest I’ve found by far. Costco has an awesome selection of nuts as well, along with affordable nut butters, organic cocoa powder, bulk spices, and huge bags of shredded coconut.

You can use any nut butter you’d like for the recipe. My personal favourites are almond for a nuttier loaf, or peanut butter if you’re craving something a little more fluffy and light. My favorite affordable nut brands are Yupik (which I order off amazon in bulk! ) or Kirkland Signature nuts from Costco. If I decide to buy my nut butters premade, I’m a HUGE fan of the ‘Nuts to You Nut Butter’ brand.
