One-Bowl Paleo Vegan Chocolate Chip Banana Bread made with all gluten-free and dairy-free ingredients for an easy healthy banana bread recipe.
Has anyone been tracking the number of banana bread recipes on the blog yet?
I lost count awhile back but the possibilities of new banana bread combinations are seriously endless. Especially when my friends (aka you guys) are requesting different types for certain dietary restrictions or allergies. I gotcha covered!
Welcome the newest banana bread recipe to the crew…
Healthy Paleo Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is here.
A grain-free, gluten-free and vegan recipe and all you have to do is dirty one big a$$ bowl in the kitchen.
I’m the queen of making a big mess while baking and recipe testing but when it comes to just making something for fun or because I am craving it, I’m not trying to dirty a dozen bowls over here to make one recipe. And I know you guys can relate 😉
I mix in my go-to refined sugar-free dark chocolate from Hu Kitchen for the sweet chocolatey goodness in this recipe. I tend to mix it into the batter and sprinkle some chunks on top. It’s the best way to do it so you get chocolate inside and on the outside of the banana bread (chocolate in every single bite!).
Whenever I have been baking larger loaves like these, I immediately freeze half so we some stored up when we need breakfast and have nothing prepped or when the crashing strikes. Now that we have a little bub in our lives, the freezer stash is my best friend when I want something sweet. I always thank myself for saving something for later!

Do I have to use the coconut sugar? Could I sub just 1-2 tablespoons maple syrup? Thanks!

i unfortunately didn’t realize that i was out of almond flour until i was ready to add it to the recipe….BUT i substituted with 2 cups of whole wheat flour and it still turned out pretty good!! looking forward to making this again when i actually have all the correct ingredients 🙂
