Yes, it’s definitely a dessert-y banana bread with all the almond butter and dark chocolate it’s loaded with – but I make no apologies for that. And you won’t either, once you make it and
One of the best things about banana bread is how versatile it is, after all. From breakfast and snacks (like my no-sugar-added banana bread) to full on dessert (like my nut-free double chocolate banana bread), it can be whatever you need it to be for the moment.
Vegan Almond Butter Banana Bread
Banana bread is sort of my baking “happy place” for a couple of reasons. First – banana bread is typically really easy to make – like, do it with my eyes closed easy – if you know what I mean.
Which, brings me to reason number two it’s what happiness is made of – it’s forgiving as heck. Ease and forgiveness in baking is HAPPY baking, for sure.
Have you ever forgotten if you’ve added an ingredient and can’t figure it out by looking at the batter? Yup, this is a weekly occurrence for me, and let me tell you – it’s not a good feeling!
Honey Nut Paleo Banana Bread (ermahgerd!)
even if you mis-measure, or leave an ingredient out entirely. Well, perhaps except for the bananas. I’m crediting the bananas for all this happiness anyway.
So, to get a bit more specific about this dreamy chocolate chip banana bread you’ll be making today, the “secret” ingredient is almond butter. I mean, it’s not exactly a secret (it’s in the title, after all) but I do give it a whole lot of credit for both the incredible flavor and texture of the bread.
Rather than weigh it down, the almond butter gives the bread a moist yet fluffy quality, and 100% helps with the rise of the bread (good rise = happy baker, too). It also gives it a rich nutty flavor that complements the dark chocolate oh so well!
Paleo Banana Almond Butter Bread
As for the chocolate, if you don’t need the bread to be strictly paleo, you can use dairy free, soy free dark chocolate chips such as Enjoy Life dark chocolate morsels.
If you want to avoid added sugar, you can also use a paleo friendly dark chocolate bar, chopped up, OR make your own homemade chocolate chunks.
If you decide to make your own, you can use the chocolate recipe from my cookie dough truffles – simply allowing the chocolate mixture to chill in a parchment lined loaf pan before chopping and adding to the batter.

Paleo Almond Butter Banana Bread
On Netflix and Neil Tyson Degrasse bombards you with perspective on just howphenomenally, inconceivably, unbearably large the universe is, and your brain basically powers off and you go eat ice cream, because that’s howyou deal with uncomfortable subject matter?
Honestly, I try not to broachthe banana bread recipe subject within my own head space, because I’m easily overwhelmed by options (large restaurant menus elicit some serious anxiety in this human, and let’s not even talk about paint sample cards…it’s just TOO MUCH to handle).
Ergo, Icharge forth and bury the concept down deep, because that’s how I deal with things that are beyond my control.It seems to work out just fine…par example: this almond butter banana bread loaf. Booyah! <- and I don’t use that term lightly.
Best Paleo Banana Bread Recipe
We had an amazing record-breaking winter (hazaaaaaah! <-and I don’t use that term lightly), but I’m ready to trade in the Spring clouds and wind for some warmth, stillness, and big, bold colors.

Paleo Banana Bread (super Moist)
True to my baking philosophy, the batter is made using unprocessed ingredients, whizzed up in a blender, and baked to sweet, moist perfection.
You can use any nut butter you’d like for this bread (I’ve done the peanut butters and it’s wuuuunderbaaaar!), add chocolate chips and/or chopped nuts.
This is your loaf, your life…you’re in control, my friends. I enjoyed thick slices of the bread with a smear of peanut butter or almond butter plus some Strawberry Chia Seed Jam.

I don’t stick to a Paleo diet myself (or Whole30 or anything else), but I still appreciate recipes that are made of real ingredients, are healthy, and still taste fantastic.
5 Star Review “It came out AMAZING!!! So easy, healthy, and tasted oh so so good! Saved it and will be making it again and again!” — Svetlana —
Coconut flour absorbs a large amount of moisture, so you need the full amount of liquid to ensure the banana bread comes out perfectly moist.

If you do not need the bread to be Paleo, you can swap peanut butter or another nut butter here. If you use sunflower seed butter, be warned that your bread may come out slightly green (but still tasty!).
