Low-Fat, High-Fiber Yummy Banana Bread image

I make this each and every time we have bananas that are over-ripe. I toast slices to have along with my coffee for breakfast. I also use toasted slices to make peanut butter sandwiches for the kids' lunches. Who says if it's good for you it can't taste good too? The original recipe, which I have adapted quite a bit, came from Nick Malgieri's book "How to Bake."

Yield 1 loaf, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup flour

1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup packed brown sugar

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F, set rack at middle. Grease and flour one 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 2 3/4 - inch loaf pan.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine both flours and oat bran, baking powder and soda, allspice and cinnamon and stir well to mix.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, egg whites, applesauce, oil, vanilla and bananas.
  • Fold the flour mix into the wet mixture, be careful not to overmix.
  • Scrape the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 45-55 minutes, until well risen and a skewer into the thickest part of the bread comes out clean.
  • Cool on a rack 5 minutes, then unmold and finish cooling.
  • Freezes well.
