Banana Bran Zucchini Bread image

This is extremely moist and gets you fiber from not only fruits AND veggies, but bran AND whole wheat too! It is truly a guilt free comfort food, and because it is low fat, it is even yummier the day after. Feel free to cut down on the sugar or maple syrup by personal preference.

Time 3h20m

Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 18

¼ cup canned pumpkin
1 very ripe banana, mashed
1 egg
2 egg whites
1 cup maple syrup
⅓ cup raw sugar, such as turbinado or demerara
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 cups grated unpeeled zucchini
2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup unprocessed bran
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground allspice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease one 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • Stir together the pumpkin, banana, egg, and egg whites in a large bowl. Beat in maple syrup, sugar, and vanilla; the batter should be a bit frothy. Stir in zucchini; set aside.
  • Mix flour, bran, salt, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, and allspice in a separate bowl. Gradually add the flour mixture to the zucchini mixture, stirring just to moisten all ingredients. Over-mixing the batter will make it tough.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Cool completely before cutting into squares.

This bread was a little dry for my taste. I think I would add some more moisture next time I make it, such as sour cream or yogurt.

I added some chocolate chips to this bread and it was delicious! The chocolate chips added a nice sweetness and richness to the bread. I would definitely recommend adding chocolate chips if you're looking for a more decadent treat.

I made this bread with whole wheat flour and it turned out great! It was a little denser than the white flour version, but it was still moist and flavorful. I would definitely recommend using whole wheat flour if you're looking for a healthier option

This bread was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time I make it.
