Healthy Banana Oatmeal Bread
This Healthy Banana Oatmeal Bread is delicious, hearty and super soft. It contains no flour or refined sugars. When you taste it, you won’t even know the difference. There is cinnamon and vanilla extract for a flavor explosion that will melt in your mouth.
This recipe is my redemption bread. Today I made 4 different dishes to post on the blog, unfortunately, I am sad to say that the first 3 turned out to be disasters.
I was so frustrated and feeling so bad! How can a person screw up 3 recipes in one day? My husband was telling me that I needed a break and to sleep on it. I couldn’t let it go! So later afternoon I got cracking and this delicious Healthy Banana Oatmeal Bread worked. It was such a relief and it really restored my confidence.
Now after my little rant, let’s go back to talking about the bread: it’s the easiest thing you will ever make. If you’re a novice baker, this recipe is for you.
Just dump everything in the blender, place in a loaf pan and bake. Doesn’t get any easier than this. My favorite part is the texture.
Since this Healthy Banana Oatmeal Bread doesn’t use flour, it has a soft crumb that cuts like butter. You can decide to add walnuts or omit if they’re not readily available. My husband and brother in law both agreed that the walnuts took this recipe to the next level.
This Healthy Banana Oatmeal Bread is perfect to have for breakfast or serve in the afternoon with coffee. I sprinkled in some stevia on top to give it a little shine and sweetness.

Hi, wanna try making this but don’t have truvia. How much honey or regular sugar in tbsp. measurement can I substitute for it? Thank you
Dhey! I would start with 2 teaspoons and check if it’s sweet enough for you
This sounds delicious. I can easily make this.
Thanks Deborah!
Question: You say 2 1/2 cups of oatmeal. Do you mean dry oats or already prepared wet oatmeal. Thanks!
dried oats Barbara
This is in the oven now!
Yay Diana! let me know how it comes out!
First round was not sweet enough since I used just 2 Tbsps of granulated sugar. My second attempt is in the oven now and I added 1 Tbsp of brown sugar along with the 2 Tbsps of granulated sugar. I also just added a 1/4c of chocolate chips. We like it sweet, which I realize is not the healthy option. Love this recipe!
Yum Diana chocolate chips must go amazing with the oatmeal and the banana! Thanks for the update
hi, can you use steal cut oats?
Hi Kathi, I used old fashioned for this recipe and haven’t tried it with steel cut so I don’t know if it will work.
If you try it please let me know how it comes out.
I made this recipe on Sunday because I was looking for healthier option to bread. My whole family loved it!! and it was gone the same day. So the next day, I made 3 extra batches. I love love love it! Thanks so much for this. It’s my new go-to healthy recipe now 🙂
Hi Oby! I am so glad you liked it! Thanks for the feedback!
HIe Tiffany! I dont eat eggs ….what can I use instead of eggs?
RUHI maybe Aquafaba – I don’t know if it will work but you can certainly try. Do you know what Aquafaba is?
Hi. Great recipe. I’ve tried it twice. I added a 1/4 cup flax and chia seeds powder, some raisins and some cranberries. Tasted great!
Love your additions Candace! Glad you liked the recipe!
Just made it, so easy to make and tasty!
Would you recommend to keep it in the fridge or not the next days?
Thanks
Glad you liked it, Marie! I personally left mine inside a cake dome for a couple of days. I’m afraid the texture will change when it’s refrigerated.
Hi! Your recipes are really great and I love them! However, I don’t like to use baking powder, because it doesn’t seem helathy. Is ot okay to skip it totally? Could I use yeast instead? Also do you think it will turn out the same if I just make half a loaf as a try? Thanks!
So sorry to say, this recipe is awful! Bland even when I added extra spices.
My husband put maple syrup it for breakfast…….??♀️
Oh no! I am so sorry you didn’t like the recipe.
PS: You have a very creative husband 🙂
Thanks, I made it with apple instead of banana and it worked great! trying carrot next.
Wow! love your apple idea! will try it. Thanks for the feedback
Just discovered this recipe and will definitely try it because it has only oats, not flour, and no yeast and will use honey or maple syrup. Will keep an eye on the comments to see if any tries steel cut oats.
Thanks for sharing, Liz in Houston
Let me know how it comes out Liz
