Everyone loves banana bread right? What better way to use up really ripe bananas than to make a delicious yummy bread for your family! This recipe is adapted from my traditional whole wheat sugar-free banana bread and tastes just as ,moist as the original version.

Have you ever used buckwheat flour before? Neither had I, but since I decided to buy some I’ve been wanting to experiment with it. When I went to make this recipe using all gluten free flour I realized I didn’t have enough to make two cups! That’s where the buckwheat flour played it’s role. Just using a half a cup here makes a nice texture and flavor in this banana bread. Feel free to use a full two cups of any gluten free flour of your choice if buckwheat flour is not in you pantry.

My hubby loved this and he is the pickiest of men, even worse than my children so you know where they get it from. He loved this bread and did not say anything about texture of flavor. In fact he ate a FEW pieces LOL!

A few readers were wondering whether my Sugar Free Chocolate Chip Banana Mini Muffins could be made into a loaf as a banana bread. And the answer is …..of course it can!  It is a HUGE loaf as you can see here. This needs more baking time as opposed to the mini muffins,  but who cares! This is more of a dessert if you ask me. If I were making this for breakfast I would take out the chocolate chips for my kiddies, just prefer to not have them eat chocolate in the morning! The mini muffins are a perfect afternoon snack and so is this bread, yum! This can also easily become gluten free by substituting the white whole wheat flour for your favorite gluten free flour. Let me know if you do,  I”d love to hear from you!

My Italian family has been making banana breads for generations. The recipe has been passed down from my great grandmother, grandmother, mother and to me. I have loved every piece of those yummy delicious breads, but I can’t continue to make them as they are. I just can’t use moderation when it comes to eating refined sugar and flours.

I have finally found a way to make it healthier, white flour and refined sugar- free and I’m pretty happy with the results. Of course my hubby is so accustomed to the traditional, unhealthy but decadent bread that he’ll never be happy with the results. My kids on the other hand still love it just the same and so do I. I mean who can fault a banana bread with no oil, no sugar and it seriously has one gram of fat!!! I think its fabulous and I hope you will too! Adding a nice, healthy smoothie with that yummy bread would be even more wonderful!

Happy, Healthy baking to you!
