Happy Friday luvs!!!
Continuing our excitement of new recipes that we are just loving… today it’s all about bread. Yes bread!
Now our still favorite go-to quick bread is our 2 ingredient plantain bread. But this one is pretty darn close 😉 As it has really only 5 main ingredients!!!
A super easy chocolate pistachio nut butter bread recipe, perfect for hitting those chocolate and bread cravings all in one.
Chocolate pistachio nut butter protein bread recipe that is gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, soy-free and delicious!
We’ve seen other nut butter based bread recipes before and we just had to give it a try. Of course with our own purely twins twist. Again keeping the ingredients simple to just 5 main ingredients to the bread. As we aren’t counting baking soda, baking powder, vanilla or apple cider vinegar.
Now just like our cookie dough cinnamon rolls not much wording is needed, as this bread doesn’t really need much of an introduction either. Especially since it’s infused with the lovely flavors of chocolate and pistachios in the form of bread!
This recipe is basically jumping off this screen and saying “You’ve gotta give me a try. Like bake me now! Please I’m delicious!”
Is it in the oven?
Hurry go now! We will wait 😉
Time for us to brag a little. If you don’t mind. We are bursting with excitement with how well this recipe turned out. We’ve been unsuccessful at wiping the huge smiles off our faces. Okay bragging over.
This bread loaf is fluffy, full of flavor, soft like a quickbread almost, but holds together. Making it perfect for sandwiches. Yes chocolate sandwiches.
Another great option for easy, healthy gluten-free bread…and grain-free too!
A super bread that is perfect anytime of the day. Debating again if it’s breakfast or dessert?
This chocolate pistachio nut butter protein bread turned out mighty fine.
Exceeded our expectations! Packed with healthy fats and protein. And a dash of sweetness.
It’s the perfect breakfast bread (or dessert bread), plain or toasted and topped with more chocolate pistachio butter perhaps? Or topped with sweet potato coconut butter.
Or good old butter or coconut oil. Or if eaten as a dessert top with cookie dough dip. Oh yes!!!
You should definitely give this chocolate nut butter protein bread a try soon. Seriously becoming our newest obsession.
Now it’s really just a bread. Packed with a generous amount of chocolate pistachio butter and love. That is all.
Chocolate pistachio nut butter protein bread.
Does it get any better? Or wait unless you think about cookie dough cinnamon rolls. Or eating this nut butter by the spoonfuls. Or enjoying this cake which started our pistachio chocolate love affair.
Okay… now for YOUR recipe…

It came out great. Btw I used pumpkin seed instead of ‘pistachio. I will post on Instagram .
wahoo Sandy that is awesome!!! so happy to hear this 🙂 enjoy!!
This looks amazing. Any substitutes for egg? I’m allergic to egg whites. :/. Thanks.
not sure Megan as it can be hard to replace 4 eggs, you can try 2 flax gels and 1/2 cup of yogurt or something. might have to add more leavening too. we’ve not experimented with egg-free version of this yet, so not really sure what will work. sorry.
I made this without eggs last night.. I used 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt and 2 chia ‘eggs’ plus I increased the b. soda & b. powder to 3/4 tsp. The bread didn’t rise like theirs did but it is still absolutely delicious!
