A moist and flavorful sugar-free banana bread made with almond flour, perfect for a healthy breakfast or snack without the guilt of added sugar.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups (240g) almond flour
  • 3 medium ripe bananas, mashed
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • ⅓ cup (80ml) coconut oil, melted (can substitute with olive oil)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • Optional: ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans
  • Optional: ¼ cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan with coconut oil or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Mash the 3 ripe bananas in a large bowl using a fork or potato masher until smooth but still a bit chunky.
  3. Add the 3 room temperature eggs, ⅓ cup melted coconut oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Whisk until homogeneous and glossy.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups almond flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  5. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Fold in optional ingredients like ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans and/or ¼ cup sugar-free dark chocolate chips if desired.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs. Start checking at 50 minutes.
  9. Let the bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use super ripe bananas for natural sweetness. Avoid overmixing the batter to keep the bread tender. If the top browns too fast, tent with foil halfway through baking. Let the bread cool completely before slicing to prevent it from falling apart. For vegan option, substitute eggs with flax eggs and use coconut oil or vegan butter.
