This Easy, Healthy Sugar Free Banana Bread is the best recipe made with unsweetened applesauce along with a little oil. It is super simple to throw together using pantry staples. Serve it for breakfast or dessert!
I love to eat this low sugar bread for breakfast! It’s just so comforting and a great way to start the day. Grab your favorite warm beverage and enjoy!
It really will depend on how you make it. Growing up, my mom made a recipe for me that called for 5 tablespoons of butter and 1/2 cup of pure honey. Those are loaded with fat and sugar.

Most recipes I see have 300+ calories and 50+ grams of carbs per slice. If you want to eat a slice of bread for breakfast or as a treat a few days a week, those macros are not very friendly.
You want to use very ripe bananas, perhaps overripe. People often make banana bread when they have bananas that are going bad.
I usually can’t find these in stores, so I have to wait sometimes up to a week for the bananas to ripen at room temperature. The bananas should have black or brown streaks in them or they should be mostly black.

If you stick your measuring cup directly into the bag, it will pack flour into the cup and result in you using too much. The flour needs to have air when measuring. Check out more tips on How to Measure Flour here.
When baking soda is combined with something acidic, it reacts, which aerates and raises baked goods much like yeast. I learned this when making my Air Fryer Chocolate Chip Cookies. In that recipe, combining lemon juice with baking soda, resulted in soft cookies with a puff.
Usually when baking soda is used in a recipe, it’s also used with something acidic like buttermilk, lemon juice, or applesauce (which is used in this recipe).

To substitute baking soda for baking powder you will need 4 teaspoons of baking powder. 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda = 1 teaspoon of baking powder. You can read more about Baking Soda vs Baking Powder here.
I use organic monkfruit in this recipe to keep it sugar free, specifically this Monkfruit Baking Sweetener. It measures 1:1 like table sugar and works great for baking. It has zero calories, no carbs, and won’t spike your blood sugar.
Feel free to use your preferred sweetener. If you use stevia or artificial sweeteners, you will have to convert the servings. Since monkfruit measures 1:1 you can follow your standard method for calculating it.
Banana Bread Recipe From Diabetic Desserts
I like the flavor of butter in my bread, but I cut the standard amount of butter typically used in half but using unsweetened applesauce.
I don’t recommend substituting all the butter outlined in this recipe for more applesauce. You will need some oil. You can substitute the 2 1/2 tablespoons of butter for coconut oil or avocado oil instead.
The bread should be fully cooled prior to freezing. Wrap the bread in foil and then place it in a sealable bag. It will freeze for up to 4 months.

Very good. I made it half whole wheat and half low gluten unbleached white. I think next time I'll add walnuts...because there WILL be a next time LOL. It's also helpful that it uses up so many overripe bananas!

My hubby’s morning starts with bowl of oatmeal and dry fruit and nuts. Lunch includes low glycemic index rice, veggies as sides. Dinner is whole wheat bread, vegetable salad with carrot, avocado, lettuce, cherry tomato and kale. He also usually has curried lentils, which provides his protein portion. A small green apple or a pear are his dessert choices. His exercise routine includes walking 5, 300 steps every day.
He loves banana bread, it is first dish he wanted me to learn to bake after our marriage. This recipe is adapted from a friend’s wife. At that time he was not diagnosed with diabetes (it developed after a year of marriage). He was so upset about losing his banana bread so I decided to make a healthier version of it. Yes, you can still eat bananas — even if you have diabetes. Bananas are a good source of fiber, potassium, and vitamin C, but they do contain carbohydrates. In fact, all fruit has some carbohydrate, so you need to count them in your diabetes meal plan.

So I decided to try making this dessert with various ingredients, and finally perfected this No-Sugar Added Banana Bread. The only sugar in this bread is the natural sugar present in the banana. For this recipe version, I have incorporated almond meal which contains less carbohydrates than other flours. Flax seed meal was also added as it contains zero carbohydrates and is diabetic-friendly.
I wanted banana bread that looks like a real deal, otherwise it won’t pass hubby’s taste test. I used coconut oil, egg and yogurt to make it soft. These are delicious additions which make this gluten-free bread a must-try. This recipe is diabetic friendly; however contact your physician or nutritionist before making any changes in your diet plan*. *As blood glucose responses can vary from person to person. Be aware that you may need to make adjustments to the portion size you eat depending on your how your blood glucose responds to eating bananas or other types of fruit.
Sift flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon in a large bowl then add almond meal .To this mixture, add flax seed meal and mix everything.
