I always hesitate to my baked goods to events than drinks because let’s be honest, it is VERY HARD to make a healthy black bean brownie stand out next to your local buttercream-frosted cakes. Or maybe it’s just me and my insecure brain.
Either way, I might just bring these in next time to school! These 50 Calorie Chocolate Banana Bread Bites look SO DARN GOOD, especially topped with my Secretly Low-Calorie PB2 Chocolate Nut Butter (30 calories!) as a frosting! AND they’re only 636 calories for the whole batch. Which means I can eat all of it, guilt free if I change my mind 😉
Topped generously with my 30 calorie, Secretly Low-Calorie PB2 Chocolate Nut Butter!
I ended up finishing half of this batch in less than an hour it came out of the oven… Your girl’s first post on foodgawker got approved on these 2 Ingredient Aquafaba Meringues and they got SO. MUCH. TRAFFIC! If that’s not a good enough excuse to celebrate, well, it is now :))
Pure, whole, plant-based, gluten-free and low in fat and calories. They don’t even taste healthy at all! *scroll down for full macros and nutrient info*
50 Calorie Vegan Chocolate Banana Bread Bites
Dense, rich, Chocolate Banana Bread Bites... and only 53 calories per serving!
{GF, VEGAN, CLEAN EATING, Low Fat, Low Calorie, Healthy}
Ingredients
- ½ cup oat flour (312 calories)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (48 calories)
- 1/3 tsp aluminum free baking powder (0 calories)
- 1/4 tsp baking soda (0 calories)
- pinch of salt
- 1 (200g) banana (200 calories)
- 1 tsp maple syrup (13 calories)
- 1tbsp water (only if you like it fluffier)
Instructions
- I baked these in a glass pan so we'll be preheating the convection oven to 302°F/150°C today! If you're using the normal pans/tins I believe your oven temperature has to be 327°F (25°F hotter)
- Whisk together all dry ingredients in a large bowl.
- Mash banana in another bowl and mix in syrup, and remaining optional ingredients.
- Incorporate wet mixture into dry ingredients.
- Bake in a glass pan lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes until you can insert a toothpick in and it comes out dry. Let cool for at least 10 minutes before eating--- it's best served cold with my Secretly Low Fat Low-Calorie Chocolate Nut Butter though!
- Store them in an airtight container, they should be consumed within 5 days at room temperature. (Trust me, it'll be gone in an hour haha)
Notes
*optional ingredients: 1 tsp extract of choice, chopped nuts, berries, nut butter, chocolate chunks, banana chunks, chocolate chips...

Hi, i have just made it, but i Think that the doe is very smal. So there probably Can only be 4 bars out of this…. is THIS recipe really for 12?
Hey Amanda, thanks for stopping by! Apologies, you’re absolutely right – this recipe produces 12 cubes (like the one in the 3rd picture)… “12 bites” should have been a more fitting description, I’ll have that amended right away.
Hi! I have a question, how much does a portion weighs?
Hey Yvana, I do recall these https://imheatherr.com/giant-fudgy-protein-brownies/ (you can sub pumpkin for banana) chocolate brownies being around 160g per 113 kcal serving but I’m afraid I don’t have the measurements for this particular recipe! I’ll be sure to include portion weights in future recipes 💖
Hello, when ur measuring the banana as 200g are you measuring with peel or not. thank you these looks amazing , trying them out tommmorow!!!
Hi Malak, 200g of banana without peel!
