If you’re ever in the mood for carrot cake but not in the mood for the all the extra sugar, you need to try this recipe. We also subbed in half the cream cheese for yogurt to keep it healthier!

I love adding bananas to any recipe for the added flavor and sweetness. The recipe calls for 1/4 cup maple syrup which does not produce a sweet bread. Add in more maple syrup for a sweeter outcome. You can also use honey or agave in place of the maple syrup.

If you like this recipe you will love my 5 Ingredient Oatmeal Banana Bread which is the base of which I was inspired to create this bread. I also have a more traditional Carrot Cake Loaf on the site too which is absolutely delicious as well!
