Healthy Banana Bread

January 3, 2017

I have to share a few healthy recipes because it’s January, right?!

Healthy Banana Bread | www.stuckonsweet.comAre you guys eating a little healthier now it’s the start of a new year?

I’ll be honest, I’m not. (tee-hee)

Healthy Banana Bread | www.stuckonsweet.comMore power to you though! It’s a great New Year’s resolution.

I just like my eating regimen and I don’t plan on changing it, but I am trying to exercise more whether it’s stretching, walking, doing push-ups, etc. I don’t belong to a gym and I prefer to do exercises at home (just makes my life a little easier). Do you have any good home exercise suggestions? I tend to do the same stuff and it can get a little boring. Please and thank you!

Healthy Banana Bread | www.stuckonsweet.comAs I mentioned, I’m not changing my eating habits, but I am making a few healthy recipes for the blog and for my family. What would you guys like to see? I am thinking about a green goddess smoothie and a healthy pizza. Let me know what you think!

It’s nice to have a few options in your back pocket when you want something tasty that actually has some nutrition value to it, right?

This banana bread is just that!! It’s made with coconut oil instead of butter, whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour, and only has 3/4 cup of sugar in it. AND…it still tastes amazing. Vin LOVED it and he is kind of a banana bread snob.

You can add some ingredients for texture like raisins, nuts or chocolate chips or keep it simple like I did.

Healthy Banana Bread | www.stuckonsweet.comHappy New Year!
