Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
Add the eggs, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, being careful not to over-mix.
If using, fold in the chopped walnuts gently.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the banana slice from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes.
Once slightly cooled, slice into squares and serve. Enjoy your sugar-free treat!
