Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/4 cup tapioca flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 small extra ripe bananas or 1 cup mashed/pureed
  • 3 tablespoons natural sweetener or coconut sugar for paleo
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoon avocado oil or ghee or extra light tasting olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2/3 cup mini chocolate chips save some for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF and spray a bread pan (8 x 4) with non-stick spray. Then, line it with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • In medium bowl add all the dry ingredients (almond flour, tapioca flour, baking soda and salt) and mix well to combine.
  • In large bowl whisk together mashed banana and sweetener. Then, add egg, oil and vanilla extract. Whisk everything together until evenly combined.
  • Mix the wet and dry together until combined.
  • Add the chocolate chips and fold them into the batter.
  • Pour the batter into the bread pan. Add extra chocolate chips on the top of the batter if you desire.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes uncover, then cover it with foil and bake for more 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. It probably will be done between 50-70 minutes. Baking times may vary because ovens vary in power and efficiency.
  • Place the bread pan on a wire rack and let it cool down for 10-15 minutes before lifting from the parchment paper to remove bread.
  • Slice into 10 slices!

Notes

  • This recipe was adapted from the amazing blog Fit Mitten Kitchen.
  • My favorite sugar-free, dairy-free, and soy-free chocolate chips is Lily’s Chocolate chips as it’s made with natural stevia and real chocolate.
  • The more ripe the bananas are, the easier they are to mash and the sweeter they'll be.
  • Avoid overmixing the batter or the bread will end up tough.
  • To store: Store the bread in the fridge for up to a week or on the counter for 3 days. Make sure you use an airtight container. 
  • To freeze: You can freeze the bread for up to 3 months. You can freeze the bread in an individual slice or as a full loaf.
