Yeah, this is really moist and hard to tell it’s gluten-free for sure! Perfect with coffee or as a dessert, this banana bread will melt in your mouth. Be sure to use mini chocolate chips, as the big ones just sink to the bottom while baking.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
- ½ cup applesauce
- 3 ripe bananas, pureed
- ½ cup plain fat-free Greek yogurt
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose baking flour (such as Bob's Red Mill®)
- 2 teaspoons xanthan gum
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup miniature chocolate chips, or more to taste
- 1 cup chopped walnuts (Optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a loaf pan.
Step 2
Beat sugar and applesauce together in a bowl with an electric mixer; add pureed bananas, yogurt, egg, and vanilla and beat until well-combined.
Step 3
Whisk flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and baking soda together in a bowl. Add flour mixture to applesauce mixture and stir until just combined. Fold chocolate chips and walnuts into batter. Spoon batter into the prepared loaf pan.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of the loaf comes out clean, about 45 minutes.
Cook’s Notes:
You can substitute 1 1/4 cups agave syrup or stevia for the 1 1/2 cups sugar, 2 egg whites for the egg, and pecans for the walnuts.
