Paleo Banana Almond Butter Bread is an easy to prepare banana bread that the whole family will enjoy. The almond butter makes it so moist and adds a banana nutty flavor.
It is grain and starch free and dairy free. It could be made nut free if you sub sunflower butter for almond butter. You can also add optional chocolate chips and the homemade chocolate sauce for a more decadent dessert bread.
I love to have this with breakfast or give it to the kids for an after school snack.

2 July, 2014 at 3:01 amI made this tonight and it is great! I used almond flour because I personally don’t like the texture of coconut flour. I love recipes that are grain free and delicious! Thanks so much for the great recipe! I will share on my blog tomorrow!
