I don’t know what it is lately, but I’ve been hit with a serious baking bug! It all kicked off with pancakes, then veered into cupcakes territory, and even detoured into smoothies land (I know, not exactly baking, but who’s keeping score?), and now, … it’s bread time.

Let me fill you in on my banana bread obsession. Every time I snag a bunch of bananas, there’s always a couple that decide to go all out on ripeness. When they start getting speckled and mushy, I swiftly slice ’em up, chuck ’em in a freezer bag, and stash them in the freezer. They’re like flavor bombs ready to explode in a smoothie or, drumroll again, banana bread!

Now, this recipe calls for a tad more action in the ingredient department, but trust me, it’s worth every bit. So, round up the troops and let’s jump headfirst into making the best paleo banana bread you’ve ever laid taste buds on. And guess what? No sugar in sight.

The best paleo Banana bread recipe – Ever

Do you hear that? Yes, that’s the sound of me tooting my own horn – but for good reason. What makes this the best paeleo bread you ask? First, this recipe is absolutely delicious without veering away from the paleo diet.

We’re talking wholesome ingredients our ancestors would totally approve of – nuts, and almond flour. This is also one of those gluten-free breads, where you don’t really notice it’s gluten-free (and I mean that in the best possible way).

This bread is also a trailblazer for the sugar-free life. Instead of refined sugars that spike your blood sugar, we let ripe bananas bring the natural sweetness along with monk fruit sugar (which is fine for diabetics and those watching their blood sugar levels). This satisfies your cravings without the crash.
