Ingredients

For the Banana Bread:

4 medium bananas about 1 pound/455 grams
4 eggs
1/4 cup grass fed butter melted, 1/2 stick/50 grams
1/2 cup almond butter 125 grams
1/2 cup coconut flour 60 grams
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
pinch of salt

For the Swirl:

2 tablespoons grass fed butter
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup Enjoy Life Mini Chocolate Chips 3 1/2 ounces/100 grams
1 tablespoon honey organic

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-by-5-inch (23-by-12-cm) metal loaf pan and line it with parchment paper.
Combine the bananas, eggs, butter, and almond butter in a food processor or mixing bowl and mix well until the ingredients are well blended. Add the coconut flour, baking soda, baking powder, vanilla, and salt and mix together well.
In a double boiler over medium-low heat, mix together the swirl ingredients until the chocolate has melted.
Pour the bread batter into the prepared pan and spread it out evenly. As soon as you pour the batter, pour the chocolate swirl directly on top and use a knife to swirl the chocolate throughout the loaf pan.
Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle. Remove from oven and let cool in the pan for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

You can freeze individual slices, thaw in the fridge overnight and rehead in the toaster or microwave.
