Type 2 Diabetes Friendly Banana Bread
Why This Is Good for Type 2 Diabetes: Low glycemic load: Bananas are balanced with protein, fat, and fiber to reduce blood sugar spikes Almond flour + flaxseed: High in fiber and fat, both help slow glucose absorption Eggs: Provide protein and keep you full Cinnamon: May help increase insulin sensitivity Olive/avocado oil: Adds heart-healthy fats No added sugar: Monk fruit or stevia are blood sugar–friendly sweeteners 🛠 Optional Enhancements: Add 1 tbsp chia seeds or hemp seeds for extra omega-3s and protein Swap 1 banana for 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce to lower sugar slightly Add 1 tbsp psyllium husk to boost fiber even more
