Ever find yourself buying a bunch of bananas 🍌 just because they’re always on the grocery list, even though no one at home actually eats them, and then watch them slowly go bad—only to repeat the cycle the next week? Yeah, me neither 😅. But in case you feel seen (again, not me at ALL), this Blender Banana Bread recipe is for 🫵!
Fortunately, my blender works overtime at home. If there is a way for me to make something by blending all of the ingredients together in one shot, you better believe I will. This Blender Banana Bread is another one of my blender baddies that comes together with minimal time and effort, yet tastes like you’ve spent the entire day Betty Crocker-ing 👩🍳 it up in the kitchen.
Why You’ll Love Blender Banana Bread
If you’re a fan of my other blender sensations like my Whole Lemon Blender Cake or Whole Orange Blender Cake, you’re going to love this Blender Banana Cake 🍌. Following the same simple method, where all ingredients are tossed into a blender, blended, and then poured into a pan to bake, this Banana Bread is ridiculously simple to make while giving you pro-level texture and taste 🤌. This recipe is ideal for busy mornings, quick cravings or baking sessions with your kiddos. You’ll have a perfectly moist and flavorful loaf with minimal cleanup and no fancy baking skills required!
How to Prepare Blender Banana Bread
🌡️ Preheat oven to 375F (190C).
🍌 To a blender add: 2 ripe bananas, avocado oil, 2 eggs, and almond milk.
🍁 Next, add in the maple syrup, flour, baking powder and a pinch of salt.
🌀 Blend on high for 20 seconds and pour into a lined loaf pan.
🌰 Sprinkle the top of the batter with chopped walnuts.
⏲️ Finally, bake for 45 to 55 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean (it will depend on the oven).
Nonna’s Tip 🍫
Top the loaf with any extra ingredients you love: chocolate chips, any chopped nuts, seeds or dried fruit.

I am OBSESSED with this recipe! I am always buying bananas that go uneaten…but this recipe is the solution! Quick, easy and delicious!
Loved the chocolate banana bread. The blender one was really odd and we threw it out. Looked undercooked when cooled but wasn’t at time. Maybe beaten too high in blender? Thought?
Hi there! it probably needed more time as that will depend on the oven, also don’t blend for more than 20 seconds. Hope you try it again ❤️
This is one my FAVORITE new recipes! So, so good!
So happy to hear that. Thank you for the star review ❤️
Can almond flour be substituted for all purpose?
Hi Toni, yes it can but the ratio will be different as almond flour is a lot more absorbent so you will have to experiment here.
So easy and delicious! I am going to be eating this for breakfast every morning this week
Amazing and simple recipe – thank you!!
Is it really baking powder you used, not baking soda?
I really enjoy your site, thank you!
Hi Maura! Yes, baking powder is correct. Thank you for stopping by 😘💗
