Bake a wonderfully moist and naturally sweet banana bread using only ripe bananas for flavor. This easy recipe skips refined sugar, making it a guilt-free choice for breakfast or a snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 very ripe, mashed bananas (about 1.5 cups)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/2 cup melted coconut oil or butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 3/4 cups whole wheat flour (or almond flour for low-carb variation)
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a standard 9×5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the mashed bananas, applesauce, melted oil or butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until combined.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix only until just combined; do not overmix. Fold in any optional nuts.
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  6. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • The riper the bananas, the sweeter the bread will be, reducing any need for sweeteners.
  • For a low-carb or keto option, substitute the whole wheat flour with 1 3/4 cups of fine almond flour and add 1/4 cup of erythritol or monk fruit sweetener blend.
  • This bread stays moist for several days when stored tightly wrapped at room temperature.
