This Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Banana Bread is easy to make, perfectly moist, loaded with melty chocolate chips, and absolutely delicious.

I've been holding onto this recipe for months and I'm so excited to finally share it with you!
I don’t know why I kept it on the back burner because it is seriously delicious. Simple to make, full of flavor, and who can say no to the banana–chocolate chip combo? Honestly, the best!
If you've made any of my other almond flour bread recipes, then you're going to recognize the ratio of ingredients. We start with pretty much the same base for all of them, and then switch up the liquid ingredients and spices to give it a whole new flavor. They don't even resemble the same recipe, and yet they're nearly identical.
Here's why I like doing this:
- You've already purchased the ingredients, so you're able to use them up in new, unique ways
- You won't get bored by making the same recipe over and over again
- You'll become an expert and can then create your own flavor combos from there
This almond flour chocolate chip banana bread uses up my favorite baking staples: almond flour, quinoa flour, arrowroot starch and coconut flour.
I have done a lot of experimenting and have found this combination of flours yields amazingly fluffy and tender baked goods. We've made vegan blueberry pancakes and pumpkin bread, just to name a few.
It’s versatile, has a wonderful flavor profile, and is always a crowd-pleaser!
I love using quinoa flour in my baking mixes, and when it’s combined with almond flour it takes things to another level. The result is a slice of bread that’s tender, flavorful, and perfect for any time of day.
So basically we’ve got…banana + chocolate + cozy. That’s pretty much perfection in my book!
I personally adore starting my day with a warm slice of this banana bread, spreading it with some peanut butter (or homemade honey roasted peanut butter would be even better), and enjoying it alongside a cup of my frothy Pumpkin Spice Matcha Latte.
Delicious, satisfying, and the perfect way to start a busy morning. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
