Who doesn’t like the convenience of a flourless recipe?
Even more, if this cake is a healthy option right?

This Flourless Chocolate and Banana Bread recipe is ridiculously simple and still incredibly delicious.

Actually, I would suggest you watching yourself once this beauty is ready … otherwise, the whole cake can end up in your tummy in the blink of an eye. 🤣

Another quick note, I used tahini for a nut-free version, but this cake is equally delicious made with almond or peanut butter!

Ingredients

• 1 and 1/4 cups (324 grams) of tahini (or almond butter)
• 3 large eggs, at room temperature
• 2 medium (260 grams or 1 cup) ripe bananas, sliced and mashed
• 6 tablespoons (48 grams) of cocoa powder
• 1 and ½ teaspoons of baking powder
• A pinch of salt

Directions

1. Add tahini, eggs, bananas, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt to a blender and pulse until smooth and creamy.
2. Grease a cake pan with coconut oil and cover it with a baking sheet. I used a 20cm loaf pan here.
3. Now, add in the batter to the pan.
4. In a preheated oven to 180°C (350°F), bake it for 45 minutes. ⏰
5. Depending on your oven, it might take more or less to be ready.
   The right moment is when a toothpick inserted in the centre of the bread comes out clean.
6. IT’S DONE! 🎉

Banana bread has a special place in my heart.
Why? Well, it’s simple, it’s not every day that you find something that is the perfect combination of bread and cake, right?

I ❤ it toasted and served with butter on a lazy Sunday morning.

This time I decided to level it up by adding walnuts and dark chocolate chips.
Boy, that was heaven! You gotta try this banana bread with chocolate chips yourself! 😜

   Enjoy your banana bread with chocolate chips!

Tip: trying to reduce your daily intake of carbs?
You can make a version that is even lower in carbs by replacing honey with an artificial sweetener of your choice.
