How To Make Healthy Banana Nut Bread (without Added Sugar!) • A Sweet Pea Chef
Three sweet treats that hold a special place in my heart — the other two being chocolate chip oatmeal cookies and Black Forest cake. And if you’re wondering what those three things could possibly have in common, the answer is: almost nothing other than the fact that they’re delicious and basically epitomize my childhood. Well, the homemade baked goodie portion of my childhood, anyways.
I’ve been baking for pretty much as long as I can remember, and almost allof those early baking memories involve hanging out in the kitchen and “helping” Mom make one of the aforementioned treats, with cookies being the most common, Black Forest happening for every.single special occasion, and the elusive banana bread making an appearance on the off-chance that we had some ripe bananas lying around… which wasn’t really that often.
I actually remember not believing my mom when she said that we couldn’t make banana bread becausethe bananas weren’t ripe enough.My little 7 year-old self saw yellow bananas on the counter and couldn’t understand what more my mom wanted from them. Bananas were bananas…
Bowl Gluten Free Banana Bread
A huge difference in not only the sweetness, but the texture that properly ripe bananas add to whatever you throw them in. Not to mention the increased health benefits.
Anywho, maybe it’s because it was such a rare occurrence, or maybe it’s because it’s just plain delicious, but banana bread securedone of the coveted top 3 spots in my heart, and it continues to hold that spotto this day. Which makes the fact that I couldn’teven remember the last time I had a slice of it
I originally posted a slightly modified version ofthisrecipe a couple yearsago, butit pretty muchgot lost in the archives since I wasn’tserious about food blogging at that point, and had no idea about photography, SEO, social media promotion, etc… which is a shame because it’s really kind of amazing. And by “really kind of amazing” I mean it’s easily my favourite recipe for healthy banana bread.
The Best Banana Bread Recipe
Soft, tender, subtly sweet, and loaded with banana flavour, you’d never be able to tell that this banana bread is made without butter or oil. Instead, it’s got Greek yogurt to keep it moist, with an extra egg and some coconut sugar to help out.
The recipe calls for 1/2 cup, but you’d be fine cutting that down to 1/3 cup if you like your breads a little less sweet. And this is especially true if you were planning on tossingin some chocolate chips. I like my banana bread without any add-ins, so I passed on the chocolate (

Eggless Banana Bread Recipe
You may find yourself subconsciously stockpiling bananas, just so they can turn spotty and you have a new excuse to whip up a loaf.

Greek Yogurt Banana Oat Bread
5 Star Review “This was THE best banana bread I’ve ever made! Definitely a redo in our household. Thank you for this amazing recipe!” — Nat —
This healthy banana bread recipe is good for you and made with nutritious ingredients, but it doesn’t sacrifice the pure comfort you long for when you reach for a slice.
You can enjoy it for breakfast, an afternoon snack, or try warm it in a toaster oven, then top with a scoop of Banana Ice Cream for dessert.
Easy Oatmeal Banana Bread • Unicorns In The Kitchen
You can swap the maple syrup in this banana bread for the same amount of honey. The honey will make the bread look darker, since it caramelizes more intensely as it cooks, but the bread will taste delicious.
Banana bread can be undercooked easily, and unfortunately, once the loaf has cooled, even if it is gooey in the middle you cannot put it back into the oven.
Cut your leftover bread into slices and individually wrap in plastic wrap before freezing. Then, you can thaw and enjoy slices as desired for a quick treat.

No, almond flour cannot be swapped for regular flour, as the two have completely different weights, fat contents, and baking behaviors. Check out my tasty Almond Flour Banana Bread instead.
While some banana breads are high in sugar and fat (why banana bread is so high in calories), this healthy banana bread is good for you. It’s packed with nutritious ingredients like whole wheat flour, egg, Greek yogurt, and bananas. Plus, this recipe proves you can use less sugar in banana bread by swapping in some maple syrup.
While we love this as a healthy banana bread with whole wheat flour, it will work just as well with all-purpose flour. Simply swap the whole wheat flour for an equal amount of all-purpose flour, or do a 50/50 blend.

Healthy Banana Bread With Yogurt
As the the new year progresses, I’m continuing to make as many positive changes as my life allows. We’ve had a rough start as my husband broke his leg just after Christmas in a sledding accident. The silver lining in this story is that we have been able to spend a lot of time together as a family, and I’ve made healthy meals for us to eat at home almost every day since it’s been tough for my husband to get around.
When the bananas on the counter begin to blacken, it’s always a great time to make banana bread. In fact, I obsessively make banana bread as soon as I see black spots on my bananas! This Greek Yogurt Banana Bread is a new version I’m sharing with you today.

The Best Healthy Banana Bread Recipe
With healthy ingredients utilized like Greek yogurt, honey and applesauce, the result is this beautiful loaf of banana bread, super, super tender and moist, not overly sweet, and delicious. The bonus is that there is added protein in there from the Greek yogurt!
Greek yogurt has plenty of protein and probiotics, which are good for you! Greek yogurt is creamy, and that creaminess helps keep baked goods moist. It’s also pretty tangy in flavor. That tanginess yields a unique, appealing flavor to this Greek yogurt banana bread. The acidity in Greek yogurt helps activate baking soda, which helps make this bread fluffy and light, not so dense.
Greek yogurt is a great alternative to sour cream in banana bread because it imparts that nice, tangy flavor with fewer calories and more health benefits. Tip: you can also swap out Greek yogurt for buttermilk in pancakes and waffles.
Healthy Yogurt Banana Bread • Ae Dairy
My husband is getting pretty tired of sitting on the couch with his leg propped up, so surprises like freshly baked banana bread delivered with his coffee in the morning are totally appreciated. He asked me what I did to the bread to make it so moist and tender. And I was happy to share that I used that big container of Greek yogurt that sits in the refrigerator untouched most of the time!
