This Healthy Banana Bread is seriously THE BEST. I know that is a very bold statement, but it’s true.
It’s naturally sweetened with only bananas, honey, and applesauce (no refined sugar!), packed with whole grains, and perfectly moist!
Easy to make with basic pantry staples, this Healthy Banana Bread will definitely be a favorite in your house!
Now.. you might be thinking.. healthy banana bread? How could this be?! But I promise you would NEVER even know that this banana bread is made with good-for-you ingredients. Just in case you’re wondering…
Is Banana Bread Healthy?
Normally it’s not. However, this banana bread is still a treat and much healthier than regular banana bread!
- Whole wheat flour– I used whole wheat flour in this banana bread recipe rather than bleached white flour. Whole wheat flour is a great source of whole grains and much better for you than regular white flour! This is the whole wheat flour I like
- Low in sugar – This healthy banana bread recipe is sweetened only by ripe bananas, a touch of honey, and applesauce. (and some chocolate chips for good measure) Many banana bread recipes are loaded with sugar, but this has only 19g of all natural sugar per slice.
- Heart healthy fats – Instead of using butter or canola oil, this healthy banana bread recipe uses coconut oil to keep it moist, and you can also add some walnuts for healthy fats!
You might be wondering.. why is banana bread bad so for you? Typical banana bread is loaded with sugar, high in fat, and won’t really do much to keep you full. We believe in all things in moderation, but this banana bread is so much better for you!

To make this healthy banana bread you’ll need the following:
- Bananas
- coconut oil

You can find substitutions for all of these ingredients below in the green shaded substitutions box.
How to make Healthy Banana Bread
Making this low sugar banana bread is SO easy.
- In a bowl, mash bananas. Stir in honey, applesauce, egg white, and oil to banana mixture.
- Add in whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and spices
- Fold in walnuts and chocolate chips.
- Pour batter into greased 8×4 loaf pan. Bake for 40 -45 minutes until a toothpick or cake tester comes out completely clean when inserted in the center of the bread
There are many substitutions for this healthy banana bread recipe listed below!
To me, banana bread is not only delicious but brings back such great memories- banana cake is my Gram’s specialty!
Banana Bread Recipe Healthy Substitutions
This bread is pretty versatile. Here are a few ways you can customize it!
Bananas: If you’re short on bananas you can substitute with a little bit of applesauce or pumpkin puree.
Honey : You can substitute honey with maple syrup.
Applesauce: I have not tried making this banana bread recipe without applesauce so I’m not sure how it would work. You might be able to substitute yogurt or pumpkin but without testing it I can’t be sure. If you want a pumpkin bread recipe, try this one!
Eggs/To make vegan: Replace 1 egg white with 1 flax egg. Sub honey with maple syrup.
Coconut Oil: You can replace coconut oil with extra virgin olive oil or melted butter. Canola oil will also work but we don’t recommend cooking with canola oil.
Flour: You can replace whole wheat flour with white flour but your bread might be a little more dense. I would not recommend almond flour, coconut flour, or oat flour– they will not work. Coconut and almond flour can never be replaced 1:1 with regular flour.
To make gluten free: I haven’t tried making this bread gluten free but others have used Bob’s Red Mill 1-to-1 Gluten Free Flour and had success. If you try it, let me know!
Spices: You can omit the ginger and nutmeg if you don’t have any. Add a little bit more cinnamon to compensate!
Healthy Banana Bread Muffins: Pour the batter into greased or lined muffin tins. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center of the muffin. You can also try our Healthy Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins or Healthy Banana Protein Muffins
Mini Loaves – I haven’t tried making this healthy banana bread recipe into mini loaves, but I think it would work! Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center of the loaf pan.
Nuts: You can use chopped pecans instead of walnuts.
Lower Sugar: Skip the chocolate chips if you want a lower sugar banana bread. They’re optional.
To make nut free: The walnuts are optional in this healthy banana bread recipe. Simply omit walnuts.
WW Points: Will vary depending on the plan you follow. The points for this banana bread recipe were calculated as follows: Honey: 12SP, Coconut Oil: 28SP, Flour: 12SP. Chocolate Chips: 12SP = 64/8 8SP/slice. You can omit the chocolate chips to save points.
Whether you enjoy this healthy banana bread for a breakfast treat or with a cup of coffee as an afternoon snack – I think you’ll find that it’s tasty and comforting.
Is banana bread a healthy snack? In moderation, yes! We wouldn’t eat this bread every day – but it’s a fun healthy snack from time to time!
How to Store This Low Calorie Banana Bread
Storing Banana Bread: You can store this bread covered on your counter for a few days, but I recommend keeping it in the refrigerator for maximum freshness! It will last up to a week in the refrigerator – but will lose its freshness after about 3 days on the counter.
How to freeze Banana Bread: You can slice this bread and individually wrap it or freeze banana bread whole. To defrost a whole loaf – take it out the night before you’d like to enjoy it and set it in the refrigerator.
When you’re ready to serve – pop in the microwave. If you’re defrosting a single slice, you can put it directly in the microwave or toaster oven until it is warm.
How many calories are in a slice of homemade banana bread?
This homemade banana bread has 230 calories per slice. It has 35g of carbs, 10g of fat, and 3g of protein.
Most banana bread recipes have 400 calories per slice, 60g of carbs, and closer to 12-15g of fat.
My banana bread is sticking to the pan..help!
I typically grease my loaf pan really well with coconut oil. You can also line a pan with parchment paper. Allow the bread to cool completely for about one hour before trying to take it out of the pan.
You can also run a butter knife along the edges of the pan to help loosen the bread before taking it out.
Banana Bread with Applesauce Questions
Is banana bread healthy or unhealthy?
Most banana bread recipes aren’t very healthy because they’re loaded with sugar, fat, and carbs. This healthy banana bread is great if you’re looking for a healthy treat!
Is banana bread bad for weight loss?
Any bread is going to be high in carbs and sugar. This combo doesn’t often keep you full and can make you crave more sweets, so if you’re looking to lose weight – banana bread every day probably isn’t the best thing for you. However – we believe in all things in moderation!
Is banana bread healthier than normal bread?
Not really. Banana bread has more calories, sugar, and fat than a regular slice of bread.
What does applesauce do in baking? Applesauce helps add moisture to baked goods. It also adds a subtle sweetness and yummy dense texture to baked goods.
Can you substitute applesauce for bananas in baking? In small amounts, you usually can substitute applesauce for bananas in baking. Not all recipes can use applesauce and ripe bananas interchangeably – every recipe is different.
Can I substitute applesauce for shortening in banana bread? I don’t think you can substitute applesauce for shortening in banana bread. I have never tried it, but shortening is much higher in fat. Sour cream or yogurt might be a better option.
Healthy Banana Bread FAQs
For best results, your bananas should be brown and spotty like in the photos. As bananas ripen they get sweeter and softer, making them perfect for banana bread!
However, as long as your bananas aren’t green, you can make this banana bread recipe. Yellow bananas will work just fine. I recommend microwaving them for about 20-30 seconds so they are easier to mash!
We wouldn’t recommend trying to make banana bread less moist, but adding more flour should result in a dryer bread.
There isn’t really a difference between banana bread and banana cake. Typically banana bread is baked in a loaf pan while banana cake is baked in a 9×13 cake pan.
You shouldn’t eat banana bread right out of the oven. If you take the bread out of the pan right away it can sink or make the bread fall apart. Wait 10-15 minutes until the bread has cooled a bit before eating.
It’s best to make this banana bread with whole wheat flour as the recipe recommends but you can also use regular white flour. Different flours require different ingredients to make a loaf of bread so be careful when making substitutions.

Anonymous says
it cannot be 280 calories. it maybe yummy, but so are other high calorie cakes. good way to make money referring products (doesnt matter if you have mentioned that you have affilite links in bold or not) and misleading people
The Clean Eating Couple says
Hi There! I think you’re misunderstanding. Regarding the nutrition facts, I’m not misleading anyone. Here’s a link to the nutrition fact calculation on myfitness pal where you can see ALL the ingredients are clearly measured and calculated to give accurate nutrition information. The bread is 280 calories per serving, and you will get 8 servings per loaf (which is also clearly stated) https://www.myfitnesspal.com/recipe/view/98285959147261
It’s linked within the blog post, and I would never ‘mislead’ someone by posting a false nutrition label. That would be ridiculous
As for the affiliate links – I’m sorry they bothered you, but quite frankly – this is my job and if I want to make a small commission by linking products on my website where I’m providing you with FREE content, I’m going to continue to do so. I clearly disclaim that there are affiliate links, as you noticed.
Lastly, I just wanted to remind you that when you type out nasty comments behind your computer screen that there is a REAL person that reads them. Have you ever heard the saying if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all? If not – maybe you consider putting that into practice.
Have an awesome day!
Varnica says
I LOVE your banana bread recipe! have basically been making the same thing, but adding the applesauce was a game changer! Also, got to say, I love your response to the nasty comment above. Your site is awesome!
The Clean Eating Couple says
I’m so glad you like it, Varnica!! And thank you LOL! Mean people are the worst!

These turned out great as mini muffins! I used a chia egg and pure maple syrup, and left out the nuts and chocolate. The tops get a nice crispy texture and they are so moist!!! My toddler loves them and I’m happy because there’s no refined sugar. I will definitely be checking out some more of your recipes! Thank you!
The Clean Eating Couple says
I’m so glad you and your little one like them, Tina! I’m going to have to try it with a chia egg and in mini muffin form! Such a fun way to enjoy it 🙂

Thanks

Amanda says
I had a couple bananas that were getting too ripe and I wanted to make a healthier banana bread. I am so glad I came across this recipe. I made it for the first time yesterday and it came out great.

It makes me so happy to hear that you + your kids love this! Thank you so much, Melissa!
Dawn says
Would this be good for a diabetic?
The Clean Eating Couple says
Hi Dawn – I’m not a nutritionist/dietitian. You’d need to do your own research on if this is an appropriate treat for a diabetic as I’m not sure.
Theresa says
First time making your recipe! My boys requested banana bread and I came across your clean eating (low sugar!! Yay!!) recipe! I even threw in dark chocolate cocoa that I had available:) So Yum!! Thank you!!!

Joanna Lame says
Can you freeze the loaf? I’m planning on making three loaves.
Joanna Lame says
It’s delicious BTW! I make mine with a nut flour blend.
The Clean Eating Couple says
Hi Joanna! So glad you like the bread. I haven’t ever frozen it, but I don’t see why it would be a problem. I’d just defrost it the night before you want to serve, or however you normally defrost breads!
Nikki says
This bread is soooo frickin delicious! I made it to have a piece with my coffee this morning and ate half the loaf and had to stop myself from eating more!! But I dont even feel guilty for eating it because its pretty dang healthy!! So go make this right away!!

The Clean Eating Couple says

Kelly says
Very yummy recipe! I love me a good banana bread and this did not disappoint. I did not have whole wheat flour so I just used regular AP flour (insert gasp here haha) and it turned out just fine! Super moist – to the point where I questioned if it was cooked all the way through. And my daughter decided on 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips to add to it! 🙂 Will definitely make again.
The Clean Eating Couple says
Glad you liked it, Kelly! And that the flour sub worked 🙂 Enjoy!!
Tegan says
Great recipe, I make mine gluten free 🙂 thanks for an awesome site, I reference it often for meal planning.
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thanks, Tegan! What flour do you typically use to make it gluten free?
Liv says
I made the gluten free version as muffins and they were delicious! Super moist and were a hit with the kiddos as well.
The Clean Eating Couple says
So glad you liked it, Liv!
Jenna R says
I love that this recipe had very few ingredients, is so flavorful and MOIST (I know everyone hates that word but come on it’s banana bread!). I’ve also made it into muffins and just kept an eye on them because they bake in 1/4 of the time and they are delicious. Recipe also freezes very well!!
The Clean Eating Couple says
So glad you liked it, Jenna! Love that you turned them into muffins too!
Kayla D. says
So Good! Love that it does not have any added sugar yet still sweet and delicious! Super easy comes together fast! Have made it twice in the past week!
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thanks, Kayla! Glad you’re enjoying it 🙂
Melanie says
Loved this recipe! Texture and flavor was spot on. I usually make banana bread with chocolate chips only, but I love how this one combines the two. Really nice balance of flavors. And my husband approved!
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thank you so much, Melanie! So glad you both liked it 🙂
Amanda Kass says
Oh my gosh, loved this banana bread so much! I made some for my husband and me, my dad, and my grandma. I just can’t help myself to keep sharing this recipe to others. YUM!!!

Adela says
Perfect recipe for our taste. I’ve made several banana breads with different recipes. There is one that I loved but it was too complicated and too much work. Your recipe however was easy, used all natural ingredients, and very, very delicious. This is a keeper recipe and will be the one to use on a regular basis. Thank you.
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thanks, Adela! We try to keep all of our recipes simple, easy to make and delicious 🙂
Suzanne says
What is the reason for only using the egg white & not the yolk.
The Clean Eating Couple says
Egg whites add volume and act as a drying and leavening agent.
Toni says
Love this recipe! It is so easy to make & delicious to eat. As soon as we have ripe bananas; this ricipe is made. 👍👍
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thanks, Toni! It’s the best way to use up ripe bananas!
Paula Dubecky says
Best banana bread ever.! Used Bibs 1:1 GF flour so my GF daughter could eat it. It was so good our family of 5 ate it in 1 day. Next time I’ll make a couple loaves!
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thank you, Paula!! Bob’s makes the best GF flour 🙂
Monica Maxwell says
The best banana bread I’ve ever made! Love it with chocolate chips. Kids love it too, they usually eat it all before I get one slice. Thanks!
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thanks, Monica! Chocolate chips make everything better 🙂
Kira Weber says
Really good and the texture was great!
The Clean Eating Couple says
Glad you enjoyed them, Kira!
'Tara Flanagan' says
Who doesn’t love banana bread with chocolate chips? Easy to make and with more healthful ingredients than many bb recipes, this bread tastes soooooo good. The applesauce gives it a soft sweetness and lovely, moist texture, I tossed in some chia seeds just for fun.
The Clean Eating Couple says
So glad you like it, Tara! Love the chia seed addition 🙂
Katie says
Can I use canned pumpkin in place of banana for this? How would I adapt the cooking times if I wanted to make muffins instead of bread, or would it cook the same?
The Clean Eating Couple says
I have not tried using canned pumpkin in this so I’m not sure. If you’re looking for a pumpkin muffin recipe – try this one!
As for muffins – it’s noted in the substituions: Healthy Banana Bread Muffins: Pour the batter into greased or lined muffin tins. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the center of the muffin.
Tianna says
SO GOOD. There are a million banana bread recipes out there but I love that this one has all good ingredients that you feel much better/healthier about eating. It was delish would definitely make again!
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thank you so much! So glad you liked it 🙂
Cate says
This bread is SO GOOD! I always get nervous making “healthy” versions of baked goods, but I will continue to make this recipe again and again.
The Clean Eating Couple says
So glad you enjoyed it, Cate! Thank you so much!
Nichole says
I seen a few other recipes for banana bread the other day and I remembered it has been a little while since I last made a quad batch. With growing, always hungry teen boys multiple loaves is a must! This banana bread is inhaled by them that I I don’t even mention it’s healthy! Pros sky wouldn’t matter anyways!! They love it and now this is definitely on the baking list when it will feel like fall next week!!
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thank you so much, Nichole! I’m so glad you + your boys enjoy it!!
Kim says
This was the best banana bread I’ve ever made! And it’s a bonus that it’s healthier too! Thank you’

Abby says
This is seriously the BESTTT banana bread recipe I’ve ever tried. Ok, ok. You read those comments on other blogs/recipes/reviews, etc but this banana bread recipe is the most delicious bread in all the land. If you don’t give it a try you will miss out. I make this all. the. time. Make it! Thank you Liz for gracing us with this recipe ☺️
The Clean Eating Couple says
You are too sweet, Abby!! Thank you!!
Lauren says
The only banana bread i ever make now!
The Clean Eating Couple says
So glad you like it, Lauren!
Carrie says
This was a really easy recipe. My kids loved it and it was really tasty and moist. Definitely making again, it was gone in 1 day!
The Clean Eating Couple says
Love hearing this, Carrie! Thank you!
Jen says
SOSOSOOOOOOO GOOD!!!! Amazing texture (dare I say moist!) and seemingly decadent yet healthier than banana bread often loaded with butter and oil. I reduced the amount of choc chips and walnuts a bit and it was still perfection! Thanks for sharing!!!
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thanks, Jen! So happy you liked it!
Candy says
Made this yesterday. So good and so easy!
The Clean Eating Couple says
So glad you liked it, Candy!
Katie Hartman says
This bread is so good, really moist and the prefect amount of sweetness. I wasn’t sure it would be sweet enough , but it is perfect. The chocolate chips add the perfect touch. My new go to recipe, I always check this site first for new recipes, thanks!!
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thanks, Katie! So glad you liked it!
Amanda says
I have made this a ton of times and love it. I went to make it again yesterday and realized I ran out of whole wheat flour. I subbed in all-purpose flour like the blog mentioned and it still came out great!!
The Clean Eating Couple says
So happy to hear this, Amanda!
Michelle says
To make it even better, omit oil altogether and just sub apple sauce. You can do that with any recipe and it turns out moist and perfectly delicious. Whatever amount of oil it calls for, use the same amount of applesauce. Been doing this for years and haven’t failed yet. Cheers!
The Clean Eating Couple says
I haven’t tried that with this recipe – it already has applesauce and bananas in it so this isn’t something I would recommend but glad it has worked for you with other recipes!
LeeAnn says
Oh My Gosh!!! This was amazing. ❤️ It tastes so good and was very light. Thank you for sharing the recipe. I have more bananas. I am going to make them into muffins and freeze them for work.
The Clean Eating Couple says
So glad you liked it! Thank you!

Hi
This recipe looks amazing, and I would really like to try it, but where do I find the quantities for the ingredients…

Carol says
A family favorite ! Always turns out very moist, I also chop up a 90% dark chocolate bar before baking
The Clean Eating Couple says
So glad you like it! Love the dark chocolate addition!
Emily says
The perfect recipe to make with kids. I think they enjoy letting a couple of bananas ripen just so we can make their favorite banana bread. I love that it isn’t too sweet and usually omit the chocolate chips just because my kids like to enjoy multiple servings at a time.
The Clean Eating Couple says
So happy you liked it, Emily! Thank you!
Christa says
I have tried so many banana bread recipes you wouldn’t believe it. This is the best recipe by far. The bread has so much flavor and isn’t bland. It’s moist and fluffy. I added 1 tsp of vanilla extract. I made 14 muffins following this recipe and baked them for 18 minutes without using liners. I could have eaten several in one setting. I used Lily’s semi-sweet style baking chips that have no added sugar and walnuts. I won’t use another recipe. Thank you so much for posting this!
The Clean Eating Couple says
so glad you liked it, Christa! Thank you so much!
Jen says
Tastes even better than it looks! Love that the banana does most all the work to sweeten this up too. And so easy to put together…yum!!
The Clean Eating Couple says
Thank you so much!
michelle hatmaker says
I’m normally not a fan of banana but this recipe is pretty good I like that there is no refined sugar what makes it so good is it simple ingredients that you already have in your pantry
The Clean Eating Couple says
So happy you liked it!
Emily says
Perfect, healthy snack that leaves the house smelling good! I omit the chocolate chips but it still tastes great. It’s one of my favorite recipes to make with my kids.
Shaula says
I like this recipe. It’s super easy to make and it’s delicious. Good texture and just the right amount of sweet, but not too sweet. The chocolate chips make it perfect.
Melissa says
Family favorite!!
