Banana Bread Made With Greek Yogurt
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…

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.
Chocolate Chip Banana Bread With Greek Yogurt
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 (

Dee Licious Greek Yogurt Banana Bread Recipe
If you use plain Greek yogurt, you will create a very soft & slightly buttery white bread with this recipe. However, if you use a fruit flavored Greek yogurt (i.e. blueberry Greek yogurt), you will create a soft yogurt bread with a hint of your favorite fruit flavor. FYI – I prefer to use fruit flavored Greek yogurts when making this bread. Blueberry yogurt bread is delicious!
For this soft white bread recipe, you can use either instant yeast or bread machine yeast (which is an instant yeast). While you can knead the dough by hand, my yogurt bread recipe shows you how to easily make this bread with either a bread machine’s dough setting or an electric stand mixer with dough hook. The dough will then be baked in your oven.
Equipment Needed – Measuring cup & spoons, flexible spatula, cutting board, 9×5 bread pan, oven mitts, oven, wire cooling rack and a kneading machine to make the dough (either a bread machine or electric stand mixer with dough hook).

The slight acidity of yogurt helps to break down and relax the gluten in bread flour. In turn, this results in a softer & fluffier white bread. You can see similar results in soft white breads made with other slightly acidic ingredients such as buttermilk.
In addition, yogurt can impact the taste of the bread by adding some of its “tangy” yogurt flavor as well as any fruit flavor contained in the yogurt.
