Ingredients
- 3 large Ripe bananas
- 2 Egg whites
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cup Light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
Add the egg whites, unsweetened applesauce, light brown sugar, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the banana mixture, stirring until just combined.
Fold in the chopped walnuts gently until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from oven and allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Transfer the bread to a wire rack and let it cool completely before slicing. Enjoy!
