The sultanas and three ripe bananas keep this banana bread recipe moist and sweet without any sugar or artificial sweeteners


Save your bananas for a few extra days to make sure they are really ripe, the riper the bananas, the more sweet and moist your banana cake will turn out

An egg helps the cake to rise well, we also added a little baking powder to help

Whisk the egg before mixing all the wet ingredients toegther


It's easy to make this no sugar banana cake recipe dairy free by swapping the butter for coconut oil

The handful of sultanas adds depth to a banana bread recipe, they are a great source of natural unrefined sweetness. You can optionally also add nuts like walnuts to this recipe

The spices - nutmeg, cinnamon and ginger - also add sweetness and warmth to your banana cake

We used self-raising white flour this time, but you can also use wholemeal flour or a gluten free flour to make this banana cake recipe even more healthy

You can line your loaf tin with baking paper or grease it with oil before adding your cake mix


Your banana cake loaf will look even more pretty if you decorate the top with slices of more banana or chopped nuts


This banana bread recipe comes out so moist, eat it for a quick breakfast or serve it as a healthy snack with a coffee

Replaced sultanas with walnuts ( too much sugar in sultanas), really good. Will make again!

Thanks very much for this sugar-free recipe, my family love it. I added Walnuts instead of Sultanas and it was delicious.

I would suggest adding a sweetener to this as there isn’t much sweetness to the current recipe. Agave syrup is usually what I use for sugar free baking and it makes a difference.

This is a brilliant recipe, I alsosoaked the sultanas in string black tea overnight to plump them up.
