The amount of products they have on their site is incredible!  It literally took me 2 weeks to figure out what products I wanted because I couldn’t decide!   After two weeks of searching, I finally ordered the products I was most excited to try:           

Baking: image_2 *Bob’s Red Mill Arrowroot Starch:  Ive been wanting to try this in baking, but could never find it in stores!

Xanthan Gum:  I love using this in gluten-free baking, its super hard to find in stores!

*Cacao Powder:  I never tried it before, only cocoa powder!

*Raw Almond Flour:  I love baking with almond flour and never tried the raw version!

*Used those ingredients in the recipe above!

Sweeteners:

I have been running super low on stevia so I decided to stock up with new flavors! IHERB2

Better Stevia Dark Chocolate: Add to coffee for a mocha flavor! 

Better Stevia English Toffee: Add this to coffee and/or smoothie for a caramel like flavor!

Sweet Leafs Vanilla Creme: Great in chai tea and smoothies!

Nunaturals Chocolate Syrup: I LOVE this stuff (hence why I got two)

Misc: IHERB1 Dandy Blend Herbel Dandelion Beverage:  This stuff is a great alternative to coffee and tastes AH-MAZ-ING!  Plus its perfect for those who can’t drink too much caffeine (aka moi)

Julian Bakery Paleo Coconut Flakes:  This cereal is incredible!  Its made of only coconut meat and coconut water and perfect for my paleo peeps out there.

Miracle Noodle Fettuccini:  These noodles don’t have much of a taste (probs because they are zero calories) but perfect for an alternative to pasta!  You just have to add sauce and flavoring!

    Ooh this sounds like a great website. I’m going to go look into the better stevia and coconut flakes. Does the better stevia have any after taste? I’m sensitive to artificial sweeteners tasting “funny”

  5. Cailee says

    Oh my gosh! This looks amazing. And you made it in the slow cooker! …I need to start using ours because it seriously is so versatile! …also, I love what you said about enjoying this with coffee! Sounds amazing. Thanks for the recipe!!

  6. Samantha K says

    I do a lot of baking, so I would love to buy some raw flour and raw cacao. I’d also probably buy some coconut flakes and some natural sweetener!

  7. Julia says

    This is fabulous! I’m definitely a 3-4 cup-a-day coffee drinker and am all about this healthy mocha swirl naner bread! I’m so tempted to get it going in my crock pot pronto. Well done, m’dear!

  13. Kate says

    I loooove iherb for odd flours and such. If I won though, I think I’d try something like cashew butter. I can never justify buying it on my own, haha.
    I love how you used the slow cooker here!

  14. valerie sobus says

    i have a little baby who is learning to do finger foods and i’m always wishing there were healthier baby snack options at the stores near me but there are none! i’d love to order some stuff for my little if i won 🙂

  18. Rosie says

    I love almond flour! It is so good for making no-bake energy bars, plus delish healthy treats! I love NuNaturals, too!

  72. Jeffrey says

    I would definitely get some Justin’s Almond Butter, Wedderspoon Honey, Panda Licorice and some Bob’s Red Mill products.

  73. Jordan D. says

    I could definitely use some more tea, flavored liquid stevia, a fun nut butter flavor, and nutritional yeast! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

  75. Laura says

    I’d get some nuts and some ingredients to make this recipe! Holy moly that looks so yummy…I can smell the banana bread already

  77. Jamie says

    I’m allergic to tree nuts excluding coconut. Is there another flour I could substitute for? this looks so delicious!!

  83. Elaine Suleiman says

    I would love to order the almond/coconut flours and some supplements that I regularly take. Thanks!

  86. Maggie C says

    I would shop for some baking goodies! Love to try some paleo baking recipes. Thank you for the chance and love this site.

  92. Bethany And Rachel says

    Hi Jamie, I think regular gluten free flour or cassava flour would work in this in order to make it GF. If you’re not GF, I’m assuming that all-purpose flour would work just fine! 🙂

  96. Chrissa - Physcial Kitchness says

    What?! You can make this amazingness in a slow cooker?! My mind is officially blow. I cannot wait to try this! What a great idea if you are pressed for time. I absolutely love the idea of combining mocha flavor with banana bread!

  99. Hannah says

    Wow! For as much as I love my slow cooker, I hadn’t considered using it to make bread. This sounds like such a fabulous sweet treat, I’ll just have to give it a go, ASAP.
