Description
Almond Butter Banana Bread with Chocolate Chips. This banana bread is so moist! It’s made with whole wheat flour and less sugar than normal banana bread, but you would never know it!! My kids ate this up so quickly!
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups mashed ripe banana
1/3 cup plain yogurt
1/3 cup almond butter
3 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
2 large eggs
2/3 cup Sucanat
1 1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
1/4 cup ground flax seeds
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine the first five ingredients in a large bowl and beat with a mixer at medium speed. Add the Sucanat and beat until well blended. Set aside.
Combine your flour and next four ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk them together.
Add the flour mixture to the banana mixture and beat until just blended. Stir in the chocolate chips.
Pour the batter into three mini loaf pans or one 9×5-inch loaf pan lightly coated with oil. Bake at 350 degrees until a wooden toothpick comes out clean: about 35-40 minutes for the mini loaf pans, 1 hour and 5 minutes for the full loaf. Remove from oven and cool in pan on a wire rack about 10 minutes. Remove bread from pan and allow to cool completely. Enjoy!
