Your favorite dessert bread now made with less sugar and fat, and you won’t taste the difference! This Skinny Banana Bread recipe will be your new go-to!
I was skeptical. I have a banana bread recipe I’m obsessed with. It’s better than Starbucks’ and when I make it with walnuts its better than any cake on the block! I don’t brag about many things, but that recipe will blow you away! But with the new year, I wanted to make some Skinny Banana Bread with the brown bananas on my counter calling my name. So I made this low fat and low sugar recipe! I wasshocked by how good it was! I mean, I guess it makes sense because the bananas keep the bread from getting dry.
This recipe doesn’t have much sugar in it. Usually banana bread has a ton, but I scaled it way back to keep it as healthy as possible. You won’t notice the fat being gone but you will notice it’s less sweet. It didn’t bother me at all but if you ever want some more sweetness after you bake it you can add a drizzle of honey! I liked the less sweet version because I had a slice of banana bread and some greek yogurt for breakfast and it was a great way to start out my day. Usually I eat banana bread and feel a little guilty…like I’m eating cake! But this Skinny Banana Bread is guilt free!

As with any quick bread, the number one tip is to not over mix! If a recipe ever calls to add in chocolate chips, nuts, blueberries or anything at the end, always add it in before you’re finished mixing in the previous ingredient. For example, don’t wait to completely mix in your dry ingredients with your wet and then add in your walnuts and stir them in… that makes for more mixing than you need! Add in the walnuts when the dry ingredients are 75% mixed in! The more you stir, the tougher your bread will be, that’s why recipes and us bloggers always warn you about over mixing.
My next tip is about the bananas… make sure you’re ripe! The flavor changes as they ripen and those yellow peels with the brown marks make for the sweetest banana bread! If I have some bananas and I know I want to make bread in a few days, I’ll place them in brown paper bags to help speed up the process!
I hope you enjoy my Skinny Banana Bread as much as I did! It’s a healthier version of one of my favorite things to make and I looooooved eating it. Though my husband stole the last 2 slices!! I guess I’ll just have to make some more…You’ll love this easy recipe forLow Calorie Banana Breadthat’s made with simple ingredients that are easy to find and budget friendly.

The Best Low Calorie Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
Banana bread is a classic comfort food recipe that’s great for breakfast or as an afternoon snack. I developed this low calorie banana bread recipe to have lower calories and fat so you can enjoy a deliciously dense banana bread that’s lightened up without sacrificing on flavor!
Regular banana bread is loaded with butter, flour and sugar. This banana bread recipe uses flour and sugar, but the amounts are reduced which lowers both the calorie count and fat content making it a great homemade banana bread.
Step 1: Prep baking pans. Preheat the oven to 350℉. Spray two mini baking pans with non-stick cooking spray and set aside. You can also line the pans with parchment paper.

Step 2: Mix ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, mash bananas with a fork until completely smooth. Then add all the ingredients except the flour. Gently mix by hand until everything is mixed and the batter is smooth.
Step 4: Add batter to baking pans. Divide and pour batter between the two baking pans. Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
Storing: Wrap the cooled banana bread in plastic wrap, aluminum foil, or place in an airtight container. The banana bread will stay fresh for about 1 to 2 days at room temperature, and up to about a week by refrigerating it. If you want to enjoy it warm, heat it in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds, or in a toaster oven.

Freezing: Cool completely, then wrap banana bread tightly in plastic wrap or place in an airtight container. The banana bread will maintain best quality for about 2 to 3 months in the freezer. You can also cut your leftover bread into slices and individually wrap in plastic wrap before freezing. This way you can thaw and enjoy a slice whenever you want. Just thaw at room temperature when you're ready to enjoy it.
This depends on your personal definition of health. Since banana bread typically has a lot of fat and calories, it’s probably not a great idea to consume it all the time. This recipe offers a great alternative with less sugar.
For the lowest calorie recipe, I recommend making this banana bread with unsweetened almond milk and a sugar substitute that is refined sugar free.

I use a fork or a potato masher to mash up the bananas. You can also use a hand mixer or pop the bananas in a blender to get them mashed up quick and easy.
Yes, you can! Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and bake for about 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted from center of the loaf.

Recipe For Low Fat Vegan Banana Apple Chunk Bread
Applesauce: I have not tried making this banana bread recipe without applesauce so I’m not sure how it would work. You might be able to substitute yogurt or pumpkin but without testing it I can’t be sure. If you want a pumpkin bread recipe, try this Healthy Pumpkin Bread!
Coconut Oil: You can replace coconut oil with extra virgin olive oil or melted butter. Canola oil will also work but we don’t recommend cooking with canola oil.
Flour: You can replace whole wheat flour with white flour but your bread might be a little more dense. I would not recommend almond flour, coconut flour, or oat flour– they will not work. Coconut and almond flour can never be replaced 1:1 with regular flour.
