This healthy pumpkin banana bread recipe is made with greek yogurt. A delicious pumpkin dessert or snack made without any oil or butter and naturally sweetened!
Today I’m back with another pumpkin recipe!
I honestly cannot get enough of pumpkin recipes, crockpot meals, one pot soups, and cozy casseroles.
Fall is the perfect time of year for comfort food!
Banana bread is a favorite of mine, so I decided to make a fall themed version.
This pumpkin banana bread is made with greek yogurt and naturally sweetened!
It is made with whole wheat flour and is oil free.
Maple syrup, greek yogurt, and canned pumpkin add the moistness to this recipe without the use of butter or oil.
I love making desserts like this one as they are healthy enough to eat as a snack or for breakfast!
If you have read my blog before, you know that my son Crosby can be a very picky eater.
He is 13 months old and a little string bean that doesn’t really care to sit still long enough to eat.
I gave Crosby a bite of this bread and he loved it so much he ate more than half of a big piece in one sitting.
I’m calling that a mom win! 🙌🏻
If you’re like me, you’ll love this bread served cold straight from the fridge.
If you’re like my hubby, you will love it warmed up with butter smeared over the top. Either way it’s delicious.
Snacks are a weak point for me. If I don’t have a healthy snack prepped ahead I will usually just grab something packaged.
Recipes like this one (or my pumpkin cream cheese swirl muffins) are perfect as a grab and go snack when I need one.
This bread lasted exactly two days in our house before it was all gone!
I am a self proclaimed bread lover and this one does not disappoint.
There’s just something so satisfying about eating a big slice of bread, am I right??
If I haven’t convinced you yet, I will add that this recipe is made in just ONE bowl.
