I love this banana bread not only because it is SO EASY to make but also because it is grain-free. With ingredients like eggs, almond flour and coconut flour, it is packed with healthy fats and lots of protein. Feel free to make it without the center filling and add chocolate chips or even blueberries!

Looks incredible! Do you think I could substitute the eggs for a chia egg/ vegan egg replacer? LOVE your recipes ?

How much wheat flour would I sub if I don’t have coconut flour?
jen udashkin says
I don’t eat wheat flour so I can’t say 100%. A lot of my followers had success substituting the flour 1:1.
