Marbled Banana Bread

Most households will have the majority of the ingredients on hand for this chocolate chip banana bread recipe. Some of the items may seem like specialty ingredients, but nowadays, these can easily be found at any grocery store. Many of the ingredients in this recipe are even good for keeping your blood sugar balanced, making this the perfect dessert for anyone who is following a low carb diet or who has type 2 diabetes.

Also, be sure to have these standard baking ingredients handy in order to make this nutritious keto chocolate chip banana bread recipe:

Once you have all of the ingredients listed above, you are prepared to make my keto chocolate banana bread! You will also need a couple mixing bowls, a 9×5 loaf pan, some parchment paper, and an oven preheated to 350 degrees F. Now you’re ready to get started!

Low Carb Keto Chocolate Banana Brownies (dairy Free, Gluten Free)

I don’t recommend using a different type of flour for this banana bread recipe. The reason for that is because I cannot guarantee the results will be successful, and you may end up with an undesirable texture. 

Coconut flour does not have a 1-to-1 substitution ratio with other flours. If you decide to experiment with another type of flour (like almond flour, oat flour, or whole wheat flour) I would recommend researching for the proper substitution ratio in advance. 

Healthy

Sure! Peanut butter is also a great choice for this recipe. Peanut butter is also a good source of vitamins, minerals, protein, and healthy fats. I recommend double checking the ingredients to ensure your peanut butter is made from peanuts and salt only, that way you don’t accidentally sneak in any added sugars or oils without realizing it. 

Delicious And Moist Gluten Free Banana Bread

If you have a different nut or seed butter, like cashew or sunflower seed butter, feel free to give it a try and let me know how it works out!

No worries – this recipe can be made without the sugar free chocolate chips. If you omit the chocolate chips, then this recipe will simply be a classic banana bread rather than a chocolate banana bread! You could also choose to substitute in your favorite nuts (walnuts would be delicious in this recipe).

Another option is to use regular dark chocolate chips instead of sugar-free. If you’re watching your blood sugar or staying low sugar, I wouldn’t recommend milk chocolate chips because they contain more sugar than dark chocolate. In general, I suggest using sugar free chocolate chips because that keeps this recipe low carb keto. 

Healthy High Protein Chocolate Banana Bread

Most people should be able to find sugar free dark chocolate chips at their local grocery store. However, if you can’t seem to find any sugar free chocolate chips when you go shopping, there are many online stores that sell them! These are an awesome ingredient to have on hand for making sugar-free sweet treats.
