If you’ve made any of my healthy desserts before, you’ve probably have all the ingredients in your pantry as we speak. If not, they can easily be found at your local grocery store. Here is what you’ll need:

Coconut Flour Banana Bread (paleo)

This has to be one of the easiest recipes to make. We made everything in one bowl and you follow a simple 2-step process.

Start by adding the dry ingredients in a small bowl and whisking together until combined. In a large mixing bowl, add the bananas, maple syrup, vanilla extract, coconut oil and eggs until combined and smooth. Gently fold through the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until combined. 

Now, transfer the batter into a lined loaf pan and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a skewer comes out mostly clean. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool completely, before slicing and serving.

Coconut Flour Banana Bread (gluten Free)

For this recipe, coconut flour is key to achieve the perfect texture and flavor. If you’d like to use all purpose flour, try a vegan banana bread.

Both coconut and almond flour must be used in this recipe. The two flours balance each other out for a fluffy loaf. If you’d like to use just almond flour, try an almond flour banana bread.

I’m a two time cookbook author, photographer, and writer, and passionate about creating easy and healthier recipes. I believe you don’t need to be experienced in the kitchen to make good food using simple ingredients that most importantly, taste delicious.This is the best Coconut Flour Banana Bread you’ll ever try. It’s easy to make, not overly sweet, and reminds me of the real thing– without using gluten or dairy.

I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: Coconut flour is SO tricky to work with. You’d think by now, after developing recipes like my Coconut Flour Zucchini Bread, Coconut Flour Carrot Cake, and Coconut Flour Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins, I would have a pretty good idea of how to make practically

Banana Bread With Coconut Flour Recipe

However, it still took me 6 different attempts to get this recipe right. My picky toddler has deemed this coconut flour banana bread to be the “best ever, ” so I suppose my effort was worth it!

The resulting Coconut Flour Banana Bread is moist, without being gooey in the middle, and is also not overly sweet. It could still pass as “normal” banana bread, which is why I added just a touch of natural sweetener, but you could definitely omit the coconut sugar entirely if you don’t mind having a less-sweet bread for your family.

(See the notes below the recipe if you are interested in using maple syrup instead. I tested that, too, but the results are more moist.)

Keep in mind that the riper your bananas are, the sweeter the banana bread will be, so be sure to use bananas with LOTS of black spots on their skin for best results.

When making this recipe, be sure to use the “scoop and swipe” method for measuring. I dip the measuring cup into the bag of coconut flour to get a heaping scoop, then use the back of a knife to swipe the excess off the top.

I’ve also included the weight of the ingredients in grams in the recipe below, if you prefer to measure using a food scale.

Coconut Flour Bread (vegan + Gluten Free)

Like most coconut flour recipes, this one does require more eggs than a recipe using any other type of flour. Coconut flour is freakishly absorbent, and because of that it requires eggs for both structure and moisture.

Trust me when I say that I used as few eggs as necessary to produce a good result. On the bright side, the eggs do give this bread more protein in each slice.

Best Ever Coconut Flour Banana Bread

Coconut flour tends to stick to pans more than other varieties of flour, so I like to line my loaf pan with parchment paper to guarantee the banana bread will easily release from the pan later.

To make your life easier, spray the pan with a little bit of oil, then press the parchment paper into the bottom of the pan. The light coating of oil will hold the parchment paper in place, so it doesn’t wiggle around while you pour the batter in!

I slightly modified this recipe to help prevent the soggy middle that some readers were reporting, and I added the weights for those who like to be exact with a kitchen scale.

Paleo Banana Bread

If you are still in love with the original version, I only changed 3 things: I reduced the number of bananas from 4 to 3, I added a teaspoon of baking powder to help it rise even more, and I increased the coconut sugar from 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup. Feel free to change these things back if you prefer the original recipe.

But I know that many of you can't have almond flour. That's why I have been developing more coconut flour recipes like this one.

Fluffy texture. My banana bread with coconut flour is deliciously fluffy, moist and fairly low in fat. This means it won't lie in your tummy like a rock. It is the perfect way to start the day - filling yet light.

Healthy! Regular banana bread recipes require 3 or even more bananas. That's a lot of fruit sugar! This recipe is a super healthy version. I used only 1 ½ bananas in total. This is enough for awesome banana flavor but keeps the sugar levels low. It's just 2.6 grams of sugar per slice, the equivalent of half a teaspoon.

Keto Banana Bread

Family-friendly. Banana coconut bread is a hit with my entire family, kids and adults. That's why I am certain your gang will like it too. It is a delicious breakfast alongside a cup of coffee, but also a great school lunchbox treat or afternoon snack.

Coconut flour - sifted. I always recommend measuring coconut flour in grams rather than in US measuring cups because it is more precise.

Ripe banana - Make sure the banana is very ripe so
