Megan’s Side Notes:

I wish they made air fresheners with the scent of  a freshly baked loaf of banana bread. When a bad day comes along, baking banana bread just seems to make everything better. Cheap therapy really.

Anyway – Every time I bake banana bread, it is a different recipe depending on what I am craving that specific day. Sometimes, I like more of a sweet- desert bread. Other times, I need a light, nutritious bread for a fast breakfast or snack.

This recipe is the best of all worlds, and provides delicious nourishment to the body. Best of all, it is made out of coconut flour! I get the comfort of banana bread without gluten and sweetened by raw honey. It’s the little things I’m telling ya;)

Side notes:

1. Omit the honey/maple syrup, or add more- depending on the sweetness you are craving.

2. Tastes wonderful with a coconut oil/honey spread or even almond butter and cinnamon.

Dr Jockers Comments:

I have always loved banana bread! This is a lower carb, grain-free version and I like to omit the honey/maple syrup and add in 1 tbsp of liquid stevia or keto maple syrup instead.

Coconut flour is rich in good fiber that helps the microflora to flourish in your intestinal system. Grass-fed butter or ghee and coconut oil are rich in good medium chain fats that improve immune function and reduce inflammation throughout the body.

This is an excellent bread to bring to a party or get together and an especially helpful recipe for the holiday season when you smell banana bread everywhere! Enjoy!

  1. please advise what is another natural sweetnerto use in the banana bread receipe as I’m on a KETO diet.

    thank you.

  2. Hi Dr Jockers. I can’t wait to try this recipe. I also cannot have almond butter. In an earlier post, you recommended Tigernut flour. Was that to take the place of the almond butter? I wasn’t sure. Thanks.

  3. This is one of my favorites!! Several of my friends love when I make this. I add an extra banana and use blueberries instead of lemon. I make this as a loaf or muffins. Either way it is delicious!

  4. Sounds wonderful can I substitute Himalayan tartary buckwheat flour for the coconut flour, only because I have it?

  5. This recipe is amazing! Tastes just like wheat flour based banana bread but my CGM shows almost no impact to my glucose after eating it. I’ve made it several times and my family loves it (there’s some in the oven now!).

    My only request is to list the grams of bananas needed, since bananas come in all sizes and it makes a huge difference to how runny the batter is and how well it bakes.

    Thanks for the wonderful recipe!

  6. I’ve tried coconut flour and oil many times over the years. It makes me fat. Every time. And I feel sluggish and gross when I consume it regularly. Coconut (and oil) also goes rancid very very fast. I wonder if women’s bodies handle coconut different than men’s.

  7. Love, love, love this recipe! I really spiced it up with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and cardamom. I made cupcakes, adjusted the time to about 1/2 and added chopped walnuts on top. Heavenly!
