YUM! That’s the word I think of when I dream about these bites of banana bread. Soft, light, fruit sweetened banana bread that tastes too good to be healthy!
These gluten free bites of banana bread are made with only a handful of real food ingredients; including, banana and pumpkin! They make an awesome breakfast bar or snack.
kid proof, travel proof paleo breakfast bars!
I’m spending the week in California visiting family, so having already made healthy snacks is the best! Freezer friendly, bite sized snacks are my ultimate baking go-to in order to counteract the urgent frenzy of the holiday season!
Banana bread bites are my friend during meal prep and my all around solid baking addiction. Everything about bite size snacks is perfect- on the go friendly, freezer friendly, kid proof, and they are cute, so win all around! I suggest storing these in the freezer after one day, for optimal freshness! Plus, they taste good straight out of the freezer, if you are one of those, eat it cold people like me. 🙂
I blended all the ingredients in this food processor (A high powdered blender should also work). It makes for minimal mess and a breakfast that’s ready to go in the oven in just five minutes!!
- 2 medium bananas
- 1 15oz. can pumpkin puree
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup Bob's Red Mill Paleo Baking Flour
- 5 large medjool dates
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

I checked on that paleo baking flour and it was super spendy at Sprouts. Any substitution recommendations?
Hi Lisa, I would try almond flour- I may add a bit more to make up for the lack of consistency from the blend. 🙂
DELICIOUS! i have made this several times – probably over 6 times! I have even halved the recipe to make a small batch and it works totally fine! I have also tried many different flours. Whole wheat flour works really well if you are not gluten free and it keeps these bars a bit more “cakey.” I have also used a mix of oat flour and coconut flour which is my go-to. The riper your bananas are, the sweeter these bars are! Also, instead of medjool dates, i used about 10-15 small dried dates, the food processor just blitzes them up!
Love this! Thank you Emme!
