Low Sodium Banana Bread Recipe

This Low Sodium Banana Bread is moist and bursting with delicious banana flavor. I get a craving in the morning for the nutty banana bread a few times a year. Or when I hate just seeing a bunch of bananas that turned brown so quickly go to waste. So I really wasn’t surprised when re-evaluating my recipe how much sodium was in it like most breads. So I changed it up to make it low sodium. And since it is really hard to mess up banana bread it was really easy to make this classic into a low sodium banana bread version.

The typical banana bread recipes sodium levels vary quite a bit but most of them seem to be in the 180-260 mg’s of sodium range per slice, knocking big chunks out of your sodium budget and it just doesn’t have to be that way. How about a slice of banana with just 14 mg of sodium per slice? And it’s simple to do with just a hand blender and no stand mixer required. You could even do totally by hand if need be since low sodium banana bread is more of a batter than a dough.

Low

Speaking of which, I believe stand mixers are more for “doughy” recipes and since this is a batter I would use a hand mixer or do it by hand with a whisk and spatula. And since I like keeping things in the kitchen fast and easy as possible, a hand blender is used in this recipe. OVER RIPE BANANAS ARE BEST

The best bananas for the bread are when they are getting heavily spotted brown. And the fruit inside is getting almost mushy. It bakes up with a richer more robust banana flavor. When you prepare the banana you can leave it a little more “pulpy” if you prefer, I personally like to mix it out smooth.

I also use bread flour as I think it makes a less dense loaf of bread. But don’t expect it to be light and airy, banana bread makes a heavy loaf. But you can use just about any flour you want as just about any ingredient in this recipe is interchangeable. Except for the Hain Featherweight no sodium baking powder, which is indispensable for low sodium baking. HOW TO KEEP BANANA BREAD MOIST

Banana bread is supposed to be moist, so the best way to keep banana bread moist for days is to wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Once your bread is baked and cooled, I actually like wrapping tightly in aluminum foil, it’s just easier to open and such for me.  And then store in a large zip lock freezer bag or a plastic Tupperware type container. Then just store it wrapped in the refrigerator for up to 6 days.

Low Carb Keto Banana Bread

There is no better way to use ripe bananas than baking up a nice homemade loaf of banana bread!  I love the texture, flavor, and coziness of this recipe. It makes a great breakfast or even dessert.

Growing up, my mom would make my great-grandma’s family recipe for banana bread… it was our favorite!  I especially loved adding walnuts to the batter, which gives each bite of this bread a nice crunch.  My great-grandma’s original recipe was higher in sodium, so I wanted to make a version that was low so.

I’ve tried this recipe in a few different pans – and you can’t go wrong with any of them!  Cooking time will vary, however, so you have to adjust accordingly.  In the images above I used these mini loaf pans, because I wanted smaller loaves freeze for later (and also they are cute as heck).

Take a toothpick, and stick it in the center of each loaf. If it comes out clean (no batter attached) then the bread is done. If it has batter stuck to the toothpick, then I put the loaves back in the oven for an additional 5 minutes and test again. I found these little bamboo toothpicks work great.
