A super moist and naturally sweet banana bread made with oats, whole‑grain flour, and ripe bananas—completely free of added sugar, white flour, and butter. It’s fluffy, soft, and healthy, yet indulgent enough to enjoy as a snack or breakfast. Optional mix-ins like chopped nuts, dark chocolate, or chocolate sprinkles add extra texture and flavor, making it versatile and satisfying for any occasion.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 360 °F (convection) or 390 °F (top/bottom heat). Pit the dates and roughly chop them, place them in a bowl, and pour boiling water over them. Let them soak for 5–10 minutes.

Drain the dates and place them in a large mixing bowl with the bananas. Mash them until you have a smooth puree.

Separate the eggs. In a separate bowl (or measuring cup), beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form. In another bowl, mix the egg yolks with the banana‑date puree, ricotta, milk, and vanilla extract.

Combine the dry ingredients so the baking powder is evenly distributed, then mix them into the banana batter. Finally, gently fold in the beaten egg whites.

Pour the batter into a loaf pan lined with parchment paper or greased. Smooth the top and bake in the preheated oven.

Let the bread cool in the pan for the first 10 minutes, then carefully lift or invert it onto a wire rack to cool completely. Serve with powdered sugar or toppings of your choice.
