{Brooklyn's Banana Bread}


Num Num Num!

Healthy LOW Fat Banana Bread:

Ingredients:
  • 2 cups flour
  • 3/4 cup of Splenda
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 egg whites
  • 3/4 cup milk (nonfat or 1%)
  • 1/4 cup applesauce (unsweetened if possible)
  • 1 1/2 cups mashed bananas
  • 1/3 cup of chopped walnuts (optional) 
  • I personally added a dash of Cinnamon to the last batch and I was delicious!
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350. Grease bread loaf pan unless it's non stick. Mix all dry ingredients into a large bowl, make sure to mix well.Mix all wet ingredients in another bowl, make sure to mix thoroughly.Add liquid mix to dry mix and stir thoroughly.

Put into bread loaf pan and cook for approximately 55 to 65 minutes. I always start checking the color around 50 minutes, should be a nice golden brown. Insert a toothpick in centre to check if it's done. Toothpick may be moist from bananas, just make sure it's not moist from batter.

Let bread cool in pan for about 5 to 10 minutes. Run a knife along outside edge to loosen sides. Looking for something sweet, add chocolate chips, just make sure to add in your calories. This bread is great warm with peanut butter on it.
