Paleo Chocolate Chip Banana Walnut Bread

Moist, dense yet fluffy grain-free chocolate chip banana walnut bread made with coconut flour and tapioca flour. This delicious banana bread is perfect for breakfast or snack and you’d never know it’s grain-free.

For those of you who have the propensity to eat any emotion within a 10-mile radius of your human heart, this one’s for you.

Feelings, meet banana bread. Banana bread, feelings.

Enchanté.

Nothing says, “comfort,” like a straight-from-the-oven loaf of loaded banana bread {{garnished with melted butter, butofcourse}}. For me, naner loaf’s the ultimate cureall…the proverbial tuna noodle casserole for my soul strings. Music match it with Collective Soul Pandora Radio, and fuhgeddaboudit. Insta heart bandaid.

I may even inflate or fabricate an emotion or two just to justify a good loaf-feast from time to time. #girlsgottadowhatagirlsgottado. #movingrightalong.

Beyond feasting on my own ether of feelsies, banana bread is my sharable item of choice. Family brunch? I say banana bread all the way. And if we need to fancy it up a bit, French toast made with said banana bread is kiiiiillaaaaaah!

As for the recipe…

This is version 2.0 of my Coconut Flour Banana Bread. For those of you who haven’t tried it yet, give ‘er a whirl. I changed up the wet-to-dry ratio, and added dark chocolate chips and walnuts. The loaf turns out super moist and packed with banana flavor, just the way a good banana bread should be.

This bread is grain-free, dairy-free, refined sugar-free, and paleo friendly. Made with coconut flour and sweetened mostly with banana, the bread is a healthful approach to the classic loaf.

PLUS {{Bonus Points}} the batter is made in a blender. You whiz everything but the chocolate chips and walnuts in a blender, then fold them in. Bake, wait, eat the whole loaf in one sitting.

YOLO, eat the whole loaf.
