Flourless Banana Chocolate Oat Bread
My family and I love this bread so much. It just tastes so hearty (because of the oats) and yummy thanks to the banana and chocolate, of course. So when it starts to get warm out, we tend to gravitate away from the hot bowl of morning oats and we make this deliciousness.
So many variations here, you can use all natural creamy peanut butter or sunflower seed butter instead of the almond butter. You can use any sugar you have on hand too. You can also omit the chocolate and add in walnuts instead.

Flourless Banana Chocolate Oat Bread
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup rolled oats
- 2 medium ripe bananas
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350° F. Line a 9×5" loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Using a food processor or blender, first grind up your oats until they resemble a flour consistency. Next add in the bananas, almond butter, eggs, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Process until smooth. Toss in your chocolate and mix with a spoon. Transfer your batter to the pan and top wit a few more chocolate chips for aesthetic. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. I LOOSELY covered mine with foil the last 10 minutes because it was browning rapidly.
- Allow to cool on a wire rack for 15 minutes prior to slicing.
This bread is so delicious! I wanted to eat the whole loaf lol! Is it really only 56cal per slice?
MoST AMAZING 💚💚🤍🤍💙
This recipe is on repeat. Super quick and easy. My kids love it!!!
Hi Anna, I’m so glad the recipe is resonating with you and your family! Cheers!
So good! The only thing I did differently was using regular white sugar vs coconut and peanut butter vs almond, but it turned out great! I should’ve heeded the recommendation to cover for the last 10 min because it did get a bit brown, but nothing too bad. Will definitely make again soon!
Thank you!
Hi Tiffany, glad the bread was enjoyed and thanks for sharing your feedback with us! Cheers!

Hi Evy, sounds so delicious with the white chocolate and pecans! Yes I remember you! Hope you’re well <3 <3
This is delicious!
Is it suitable for freezing?
Hi Christine, yes it is!
Can the oats be substituted for something else? Can’t tolerate oats
Hi Orla, you can skip the blender and just use 1/2 cup flour
Thankyou!
Guite yummy.Thanks
Love this recipe but the calories in state 56 calories per piece. Even when I follow the recipe exactly as written, I can’t get the calories lower the 114 calories per piece… what am I doing wrong please Stella?!
this is not the one l saw on Facebook. it said to soak the oats in milk and add cocoa powder, etc. I can’t find that on your sight

hi! thank you for sharing this great recipe. I’ve tried this multiple times and it always turns out great. I know it says “flourless banana bread” but I just run out of rolled oats and I only have APF and cake flour. how much APF can I use?
Made this today and it was absolutely DELICIOUS!!!! Such an easy and great recipe ! Thank you very much , Stella!
Planning to make today. Does this work as muffins?
Thank you
Hi Rhonda, YES, you can bake in a muffin tray, just decrease the bake time to 22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
So great of having this recipe. Thank you so much for this. God bless
Hi Janice! Thanks for trying the recipe!! You rock!
