Categories     Breakfast

Time 2h25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups rolled oats (plus 1 tablespoon for sprinkling on top (do not use instant oatmeal; quick oats will work in a pinch))
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups mashed very ripe bananas (about 4 medium bananas)
2/3 cup honey or pure maple syrup
4 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
1/4 cup milk
3 tablespoons nonfat plain Greek yogurt
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread 1 1/2 cups oats in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Place in the oven and toast for 8 to 10 minutes, until very light golden and fragrant, stirring once halfway through. Set aside to cool. Line a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper so that two sides overhang like handles. Lightly mist with nonstick spray.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in the toasted oats. Set aside.
  • Mash the banana in the bottom of a large mixing bowl and double check to make sure you have 1 1/2 cups. Whisk in the honey, melted butter, milk, and Greek yogurt. If the butter resolidifies, warm the bowl in the microwave in 10-second bursts, just until it melts. One at a time, whisk in the eggs. Whisk in the vanilla extract.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the banana-honey mixture. By hand with a rubber spatula, stir very slowly and gently, stopping as soon as the flour disappears. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle the batter with remaining 1 tablespoon oats for decoration.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, then loosely cover the pan with foil, making sure that the foil shields both ends of the pan (because the bread is sweetened with honey, it will caramelize and become dark at the corners). Continue baking for 35 to 45 additional minutes (65 to 75 minutes total) or until a small, thin knife inserted in the center of the loaf comes out without any wet batter clinging to it. Repeat the test once or twice. An even easier way to tell is to use an instant-read thermometer. When the bread reaches between 200 to 210 degrees F at the center, it's done.
  • Place the pan on a wire rack, and let the bread cool in the pan for 1 hour. Using the parchment paper handles, lift the bread and set it out on the rack to finish cooling completely. Slice and enjoy!

WHOLE WHEAT OAT BANANA BREAD



Whole Wheat Oat Banana Bread image

Very gooey and yummy, this is my favorite Banana bread recipe. TIPS: Buy whole wheat flour that has NOT been bleached. Use only PURE honey. Use Almond, Rice or Soy milk (try not to use cow milk). Extra virgin cold pressed olive oil has the best taste and has no extra junk in it. Use real vanilla extract, imitation has too many chemicals and not as good a flavor. Has plenty of fiber to help cleanse the colon which is always the best place to start cleaning for a successful diet and a healthy lifestyle.
