Banana Bread Recipe Ingredients
Here are the ingredients you’ll need to make low carb banana bread at home. See the recipe card located at the bottom of the page for full details and instructions.
- Over Ripe Bananas– Bananas should be black spotted for best results.
- Large Eggs– For consistency, I use large eggs for cooking and baking.
- Pure Vanilla Extract- Use pure vanilla for best tasting results.
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil– olive oil is used in the banana bread as part of the wet ingredients.
- Super Fine Almond Flour– Bob’s Red Mill is what I prefer.
- sugar substitute– I use Lakanta Monkfruit Sweetener, with Erythritol
- baking soda– Baking soda helps the bread rise during baking.

- ground cinnamon– Cinnamon adds the perfect spice to banana bread.
- Lily’s Sugar Free Dark Chocolate Chips– Many grocery stores carry the Lily’s sugar free chips.
How To Make Keto Banana Bread
Preheat Oven and Prepare Loaf Pan. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and spray a regular loaf pan with non stick cooking spray.
Banana Mixture. Place mashed bananas, eggs, erythritol, vanilla and olive oil into a large mixing bowl. Stir until well combined.
Dry Ingredients. Add almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and chocolate chips.
Can I Substitute The Almond Flour?
I haven’t tested this recipe with anything other than Bob’s Red Mill Super Fine Almond Flour, so I wouldn’t recommend substituting.
Stir Until Batter Is Combined. Stir gently until just combined being careful not to over mix..
Transfer Batter To Loaf Pan. Transfer batter to prepared loaf pan and sprinkle with cinnamon.
Bake. Bake for 30-35 minutes, until baked through. Use a toothpick to check center of bread for doneness. Remove from oven. Use a knife to loosen edges.
Cool Before Slicing. Let cool for 30 minutes before cutting into slices.
Recipe Tips For Success

How To Serve Keto Banana Bread
Serve bread room temperature or warmed. It’s also delicious chilled in the refrigerator. Spread with butter or eat as is.

I made this, but! Doubled the recipe in one loaf pan for a bigger banana bread loaf. I mean I had to cook it for an hour & 10 minutes. So I suggest if you want to do it like this then do it early in the day. It turned out amazing. I made two loafs🤤 I’ll definitely be doing this again.
I used a bread loaf pan and after 35 minutes it was not cooked in the middle. I have a gas oven.
Hello! I am very much looking forward to this! Can you use coconut oil instead of olive oil??
I think that substitution would work just fine.
Looks so good I can’t wait to try making this!
Excellent keto banana bread! Moist, flavorful and the chocolate chips topped it off! Couldn’t be easier to put together! Made for friends doing Keto and they loved it! Thanks for sharing!
So glad to hear it Sandy!!!
