• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.25 cup Unsweetened almond milk
• 0.75 cup Sugar-free chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork or potato masher until smooth.

Step 3

Add the eggs, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas and mix until well combined.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Stir in the unsweetened almond milk until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain.

Step 7

Fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips and, if desired, the chopped walnuts.

Step 8

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.

Step 10

Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Slice and serve as a delicious, sugar-free treat!
