A delicious pumpkin bread made without any oil or butter and naturally sweetened!

Today I’m back with another pumpkin recipe!

This pumpkin banana bread has all of those lovely fall flavors, but made with healthy ingredients!

Pumpkin banana bread is great for a snack, breakfast, or even dessert.

We love baking up this healthy treat every fall.

Banana bread is a favorite of mine, so I decided to make a fall themed version.

how to make healthy pumpkin banana bread

This healthy pumpkin bread is made with greek yogurt and naturally sweetened!

It is made with whole wheat flour and is oil free.

Simple, wholesome ingredients make this pumpkin bread both healthy and delicious.

Ingredients to make pumpkin banana bread

plain nonfat greek yogurt
pure maple syrup
mashed bananas
canned pumpkin
eggs
baking soda
salt
vanilla extract
pumpkin pie spice
cinnamon
whole wheat pastry flour

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 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 husband, 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?

Homemade bread makes your house smell amazing!

If I haven’t convinced you yet, I will add that this recipe is made in just ONE bowl.

Simple, healthy, and oh so delicious.

Can you use regular flour? Or coconut flour? I have both of those, but I don’t have whole wheat pastry flour! 🙂

Thanks for the recipe! I am always looking for healthier snacks for the family. My 3 year old just asked for a second one! I subbed honey for the maple syrup and made muffins instead. (20 min was perfect!) I added some cloves and cardamom for fun! Great base muffin — fluffy and moist and lightly sweet.
