Moist and Low Fat Banana Bread
Alexa Andrzejewski
I always end up buying too many bananas, so this is my old standby for getting rid of them -- in an amazingly delicious way!
ingredients
Wet Ingredients- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 4 small, very ripe bananas, mashed
- 1/4 cup applesauce
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil or butter (DON’T SKIP)
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg
directions
- 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees (175C).
- 2
Grease and flour a loaf pan.
- 3
Mix wet ingredients (eggs, sugar, bananas, applesauce, milk, vegetable oil or butter, vanilla) in a large bowl.
- 4
Sift dry ingredients through a sieve into wet ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg), mixing thoroughly, in another bowl.
- 5
Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients.
- 6
Fold until just moistened. The batter will be thick and lumpy.
- 7
Pour into pan(s) and bake for 45 minutes.
- 8
Test and keep baking 5 minutes at a time until the batter has all set, and a knife or toothpick inserted come out relatively clean. I like it a little gooey (but not liquid), but bake to your tastes.
notes
Only has about 225 calories per 1/12th serving. Most quickbreads have almost 400!
