Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 medium bananas, mashed
3 large eggs
¼ cup almond butter, softened
3 tablespoons agave nectar
2 cups blanched almond flour
½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
3 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon sea salt
1 cup mini dark chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a bread pan with parchment paper, tucking the paper around the sides to keep it in place.
  • Combine mashed bananas, eggs, almond butter, and agave nectar in a large bowl.
  • Mix together almond flour, coconut, baking powder, and sea salt in a second bowl. Whisk almond flour mixture into egg mixture until just combined.
  • Fold the majority of chocolate chips into the batter, reserving 1 to 2 tablespoons for the top. Pour batter into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly. Press reserved chocolate chips into the top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the top is golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and pull on the edges of the parchment paper to remove the loaf from the pan. Transfer to a wire rack and cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
