Ingredients for 5 Ingredient Banana Bread:

  • Ripe bananas
  • Oat flour
  • Maple syrup
  • Eggs
  • Baking soda

Yep, that’s it! You could also add chocolate chips on top if you prefer – I highly recommend it. I mean…it’s really never a bad idea to add chocolate!

If you want to ensure the recipe is gluten-free/dairy-free/refined sugar-free, make sure you choose the appropriate chocolate chips! The ones I used in this recipe were the Enjoy Life Foods Dark Chocolate Chips which are dairy-free/gluten-free/vegan but do have some cane sugar. These Lily’s Dark Chocolate Chips are refined sugar-free.

I also like to add another banana on top, sliced in half. Again, it’s up to you!

How to Make 5 Ingredient Banana Bread:

It’s so simple to make! Start by preheating the oven and greasing a 9″ x 5″ loaf pan with coconut oil or other healthy oil. Mix all of the ingredients thoroughly together in a bowl, except for any toppings. Pour the mix into the loaf pan.

Add any toppings if desired. As you can see from my photos, I added chocolate chips and an additional banana sliced in half. I love adding another banana sliced on top because I think it makes it look so beautiful…and I also just LOVE banana flavor, so the more the merrier!

Bake in the oven, let cool a bit, and then enjoy!
