This is my sugar free chocolate banana bread. I used the original recipe for banana bread and I added dates instead of sugar. It is not very sweet but adding pieces of sugar free chocolate my banana bread became sweet.
It is an easy recipe with all the ingredients except the chocolate mixed in the bowl.
Ingredients:
- 2 big bananas
- 100 ml olive oil
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon Homemade vanilla extract
- 10g baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- ½ cup dates left in water overnight
- 200g flour
- Pieces of sugar free chocolate
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 180 degree Celsius. Put a baking sheet in a loaf pan. I used one smaller because I had only half of the mix. The other half I used to do something else. I will write you about it in the near future.
In a bowl, mashed the bananas with a fork. Stir the olive oil, dates, eggs and vanilla extract. Mix the flour with the baking soda and then add it to the other mix.
For this recipe I used half of the batter.
Pour half of the remaining batter into the loaf pan. Add pieces of chocolate and then add the second half on top covering all the chocolate pieces. Bake for 30-40 minutes. If you use all the batter baked for 50 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for a few minutes. After, remove the chocolate banana bread from the pan and let it cool completely before serving. Slice and serve. Goes great with a glass of milk. Any milk.
Enjoy!

Love this recipe, most people don’t know that dates are a healthy alternative to sugar. They don’t cause an insulin spike because they are full of fiber and potassium. Simply put their a real food. I can’t wait to try this one at home
Thank you

Sharing this recipe from Cooking Without Limits! I love that it only uses whole ingredients instead of artificially refined ones. Great example of truly healthy cooking
I wanted to add- I love this recipe, I’m totally going to try it some time soon. I was just wondering though, have you ever made it with dark chocolate instead? I’m wondering how that would taste with the banana.
Thank you. I think is gone go great with dark chocolate. Maybe add a few more dates to be sweeter
