Healthier Double Chocolate Banana Bread

Healthier Double Chocolate Banana Bread

This healthier double chocolate banana bread is the perfect combo of indulgence and nutrition. Made with oat flour, almond meal, overripe bananas, and a touch of rice malt syrup, it’s naturally sweet and packed with fibre. Swapping out butter for peanut butter keeps it light and moist, while still giving you that rich, chocolatey kick from the dark chocolate chips. It’s the kind of snack that feels like a treat but won’t throw you off track whether you’re having it for breakfast, an afternoon pick-me-up, or a post-workout bite. Total win, right?
