Only a few simple and accessible ingredients. All you need is to mix everything in one bowl.
Bake.
Enjoy!
How to Make Peach Paleo Banana Bread
First, in a mixing bowl, combine all the wet ingredients –
- 1 cup mashed bananas
- 1/2 cup steamed (very soft) sweet potatoes
- 2 egga
- 1/2 cup unsweetened unsalted almond butter
Whisk with a fork or use a food processor until smooth.
Second, add in all the the dry ingredients
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
Third, fold in 1 cup cubed peaches.
Then, pour the peach banana bread mixture into a greased/lined loaf pan.
Lastly, top it with more peach slices. Bake 375 F for 30 minutes.
Tip: Lightly sauté the peaches in 1 tbsp coconut oil and dashes of cinnamon before baking them into the banana bread. This process can help soften them, bring out the peach flavor and make them extra juicy.
Tips for the Best Paleo Banana Bread Texture
For Fluffy Banana Bread with Coconut Flour:
Add ¼ cup coconut flour
Gooey Flourless Banana Bread:
Add 2 tbsp coconut flour.
In my original flourless banana bread recipe, I omitted coconut flour all together.
However, since we are adding peaches in this recipe, the banana bread will flop a bit if we don’t add any coconut flour.

Notes
- For tips about how to make this peach banana bread fluffy vs. gooey, see the "Tip" Section in this post.
- Adding the coconut sugar gives it very nice sweeter taste. But it is optional. I find this banana bread is plenty sweet from the ripe bananas and sweet potatoes.
- For sweet potatoes, I like to use Japanese yam (the pink-ish skin, white inside). I find the much sweeter than the regular ones.
