Don't really know why you get this problem, this works for me:
$ cat template.json
{
"builders": [{
"type": "amazon-ebs",
"region": "us-east-1",
"source_ami": "ami-0b898040803850657",
"instance_type": "t2.micro",
"ssh_username": "ec2-user",
"ami_name": "REDACTED"
}]
}
$ packer version
Packer v1.4.3-dev (39076f82e+CHANGES)
$ env AWS_PROFILE=packer-demo packer build --force template.json
amazon-ebs output will be in this color.

I suggest that you remove most things from your template or start with mine
above and add thinks, and rebuild until you find what change introduces the
error.
