HEALTHY Banana Bread! no sugar, no butter, whole wheat & SUPER MOIST! #healthy #banana #bread #recipe | www.wakeuptowaffles.com

Who doesn’t love a moist slice of banana bread for breakfast? There’s nothing better than a warm slice with a cup of coffee on a cold morning.

This banana bread is very soft and moist. A slice of this banana bread, a Tablespoon of natural peanut butter and a cup of coffee makes the most perfect breakfast in the world!

I used to make banana bread with white flour and tons of cane sugar. I’m so proud to say that this banana bread is not only just as delicious… if not more, but it’s also much healthier!

This banana bread is great all on its own, but I’m sure it would also taste amazing with add-ins, like nuts, blueberries or chocolate chips.

How can something so dreamy exist?

This banana bread reminds me of bakery banana bread. It has a very similar texture, moisture and comforting qualities.
