Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
Step 2
Combine bananas, orange juice and zest, rolled oats, and maple syrup in a large bow. Allow the oats to soak, setting aside for 20 minutes. Combine ground flax and water and set aside.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together oat flour, chickpea flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda.
Step 4
Stir the almond butter, vanilla and flax mixture into the softened oat mixture until well combined. Incorporate wet ingredients into dry and mix until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts.
Step 5
Pour batter into a loaf pan and bake for 60-75 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Test in a few spots to ensure doneness. Let the bread cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, before transferring to a cooling rack. Cool until room temperature and serve.
