Hi! I love this recipe. I am wondering about adding protein powder to it- would you have any advice on how much to add in, or if you think it might not be a good fit? I don’t have a lot of experience baking so any tips would be appreciated.
Thank you for the amazing recipes and inspiration!
Hi Esther, I’ve never tried, so it would be an experiment. I’m sorry, but since I haven’t played around with it, I can’t offer any specific guidance. You could try adding a few tablespoons and see how it goes, adding a little moisture to the batter if it seems too thick.
Hi Sharon! You could try unsweetened applesauce, though the bread will be less sweet (and I haven’t tried myself, so I can’t 100% guarantee the results). You might also like this paleo pumpkin bread: https://www.wellplated.com/paleo-pumpkin-bread/
I tried this recipe last night – amazingly delicious! Just like zucchini loaf with regular flour and sugar. I don’t have a proper 8×8 pan (I know, it’s terrible), so I decided to risk it and try a glass loaf pan. I lowered the baking temp to 325 and baked it for about 55 minutes or so and it turned out perfectly.
These were amazing! My Paleo-eating husband and gluten-free father-in-law agree! I made them as a healthy option for my son’s birthday and they were gone before the cake ;)
Just going to put it out there that I LOVE that this has so many eggs! I’m always looking for ways to get a little protein boost! Keep those higher protein recipies coming ??
Hi Joelle, the bread does have a lot of eggs in it, so I could see how you would pick up on the flavor note if you’re more sensitive to it. Many readers have enjoyed it the bread very much and didn’t notice this, but everyone has different tastes. I’m glad you were still able to enjoy the recipe!
I haven’t make these yet but I am certain they’ll be 5 stars. Just wondering if the coconut flour could be substituted for chickpea flour (I suppose not Paleo). I have tons of it on hand so just curious if it would work.
delicious! if these carb counts are correct, I am very happy. Need to have with some beverage, it’s thick and delicious, or perhaps that was because I inhaled 3 pieces and almost choked myself. I used trader joe’s pound plus dark chocolate.
I just made this tonight & its so moist & delicious!!! Everyone LOVED them!!
I am so so happy to hear that Diane! Thank you so much for trying the recipe and taking time to leave this lovely review. It means a lot!

Made this to the recipe and it is unlike other paleo bread recipes that sort of fall apart and more like a nice dense bread! I am saving this one!
Kristy, I’m so happy to hear this recipe was a winner for you! Thanks so much for giving it a try and reporting back!
These were so good! I was amazed how something with little sugar and carbs could be so tasty!
Thanks for taking the time to leave this awesome review, Julie! I’m happy to hear they were a hit!
These look UNREAL, Would love to have it. Yumm!
I can’t eat banana. Is there anything you could do to substitute for that in this recipe?

Just about to make this recipe and realized we’re out of parchment paper? how necessary is it!? Thanks in advance!
Hillary, if you grease your pan well, I think you’ll be OK!!

Hooray! I’m so happy to hear it was a hit.
Erin, these were awesome! I was astonished how good taste it left to me. I am loving your recipes!
How would this be without *gasp* the chocolate??
Hi! It will be less sweet since the chocolate does add sweetness, but if you doesn’t mind that, the recipe will be fine without.
Just going to put it out there that I LOVE that this has so many eggs! I’m always looking for ways to get a little protein boost! Keep those higher protein recipies coming ??
Woot woot! Thanks, Kristin!
Wow, this looks good (with such amazing pictures)! Would defiantly like to taste it. Will try this weekend.
Made this last night and doubled it. Two glass 8×8 pans.
Turned out wonderful! Thank you for the recipe ❤️
Thanks for reporting back, Susan! I’m glad to hear you enjoyed it!
This was a good recipe but mine tastes kind of like scrambled eggs.

Erin can I add a few sliced almonds or walnuts crushed up to this recipe? It looks good.
Hi Lorraine, yes, I think you could! I haven’t tried it myself, but I hope you enjoy.
This recipe looks amazing. I’m very excited to try it out! Just wondering what type of Ghirardelli bar you used? Thanks!
Hi Natalie, I used a dark chocolate bar! I hope you enjoy the bread!

Hi Jenny, coconut flour has very particular baking qualities and cannot be substituted. I hope you enjoy the recipe if you decide to give it a try!
Nice one. Thanks for sharing.
