We always seem to have tons of super ripe bananas around the house – one minute they are green and the next they have gone way past yellow. And there is nothing better than a fresh loaf of banana bread hot out of the oven.

My mom loves making banana bread, I remember having it a lot as a kid and getting super excited waiting for it in the oven.  She always added walnuts and chocolate chips, so to me no banana bread is complete without them!  This recipe is made from coconut flour for a more fiber rich recipe.

How Do I Make Banana Bread with Coconut Flour?

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, and line a bread loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, mash together bananas until they become smooth, and add the rest of the ingredients (including the chocolate chips and walnuts if you are using) and mix well to combine. 
  • Pour the batter into the loaf pan (top with extra chocolate chips, if desired) and bake in the oven for 50-60 minutes until the middle begins to firm.  Test middle to ensure it is cooked through before removing from oven.  Cool completely before eating.

Notes

Vegan Egg Replacers

  • Eggs – for a vegetarian version I used eggs. For a vegan version, I’d recommend a baking egg replacer. A few of you commented that flax eggs and chia eggs leave the bread runny in the middle, so avoid using flax or chia.
