This easy coffee banana loaf is made without any flour or added sugar. All you need is 5 ingredients and you have a healthy yummy treat!
This coffee banana bread loaf is so quick and easy to throw together. Most of these 5 ingredients are typically always on hand. I adore that there is no added sugar or sweetener. The sweetness comes from the bananas (and chocolate chips – if using).
This is definitely a unique recipe with the added coffee ingredient. If you don’t have coffee, all you need is 2 teaspoons instant coffee whisked in with 3 tablespoons water. You can also just use milk instead.
Since this loaf recipe is flourless you would expect a mushy bread texture but its the exact opposite. Whenever I use nut butter, the texture comes out just like a traditional bread.
Make sure to use zero sugar chocolate chips to keep these at a low glycemic index. If you like this recipe you will love my 6 Ingredient Flourless Peanut Butter Chocolate Chunk Banana Bread or my Flourless Banana Peanut Butter Bars.
