Banana Bread

You've gotta love this Banana Bread recipe!
It uses whole wheat flour, it is low in fat,
low in sugar & still tastes great!

Ingredients:
2 eggs
1/3 c. skim milk
2/3 c. applesauce
2 Tb. canola oil
3 medium mashed bananas
1 tsp. vanilla
Mix above together until combined.

In another bowl, combine:
1 c. all-purpose flour
3/4 c. whole wheat flour
1/3 c. sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. cinnamon

Whisk dry ingredients together. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Line with parchment paper & spray 1 large or 2 small loaf pans and pour batter in.

Bake @ 350* for 30-35 minutes (will take longer for large loaf, 40-45 minutes) Bread is done when top bounces back when touched and toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. **It is easiest to take bread out of pans once it is completely cool, although the parchment paper lining makes it easier to take out while still warm. This is a healthy banana bread you can feel great about eating! Enjoy!
