Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium ripe bananas
- 0.25 cup unsweetened applesauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup zero-calorie sweetener (like Stevia or Splenda)
- 1 as needed non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth and creamy.
Add the unsweetened applesauce, vanilla extract, and egg to the mashed bananas. Stir until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking soda, baking powder, ground cinnamon, salt, and zero-calorie sweetener.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the banana bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice into 10 equal pieces and enjoy!
