Healthy Chocolate Chip Banana Bread — Lala's Plate
I made this healthier chocolate chip banana bread on a lazy Sunday morning and I think that’s my own personal heaven. The house is quiet, I’m sippin’ on my morning latte, and everything feels nice and slow.
To be honest, I won’t expecting it to turn out that great when I whipped up the recipe since butter usually makes my world go wrong and this banana bread has ZERO in it. Partly because I wanted to make it healthier and partly because we were all out of butter and sometimes a trip to the grocery store is just too much effort. But YOU GUYS. So yummy! Kyle and I practically inhaled it and I bought a big batch of bananas to make it again soon.
My banana bread baking has always been dictated by the state of my bananas. Banana bread always tastes the best when you use super ripe, browning bananas. They’re extra sweet and mushy and can we just say a big thank you to the universe for giving us such a delicious way to use those ‘nanners instead of trashing them?!

What I love about this recipe is that it genuinely has all that same delicious flavor of “normal” banana bread and isn’t dry thanks to the bananas, apple sauce, and coconut oil. It’s also hearty, so when you eat it, you’re left feeling more satiated. I personally love adding walnuts to my banana bread, but left it as optional in this recipe since I know a lot of people prefer not to have that extra crunch or don’t love nuts!Add Chocolate Chips to banana bread and you will get this amazing Healthy Chocolate Chip Banana Bread recipe that is made with oatmeal and whole wheat flour. Super moist, so delicious, and the best part? It’s very easy to make.

Healthy Banana Bread Recipe
Keeping your banana bread moist after baking will depend on how you store it. Once it’s cooled off and you’ve had your slice or two, wrap or cover it with foil or plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out. If you feel like slicing it up and storing it in a tightly sealed container that will work as well. A freshly baked healthy banana bread can last 2-3 days at room temperature and longer in the fridge.
How you store it will determine how long they will last for. If you plan on devouring your chocolate chip banana bread in 2 days, then it is safe to wrap it tightly with plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out a leaving it on your kitchen counter at room temperature. They will last up to one week in the fridge. You just need to keep it wrapped or sliced and placed in an airtight container.
