Another adaptation from Vegan a Go Go. I changed this to spelt flour, just personal preference and a little more protein. I also halved the amount of oil and used some applesauce to save on some calories. Ingredients:
3 ripe bananas |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1/4 cup canola oil (or any light oil) |
1/4 cup applesauce |
1/2 cup sugar |
1/2 cup dates, chopped |
1 1/2 cups spelt flour |
1/2 cup oat bran |
1/2 teaspoon sea salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a small bowl mash up the bananas and then mix in the lemon juice, oil, applesauce, sugar and dates.
2. In a larger bowl stir together the flour, oat bran, sea salt, baking powder and baking soda.
3. Add the wet mixture to the dry and mix gently until just mixed.
4. Spoon into a lightly oiled loaf pan and bake for 40-50 minutes (do the toothpick test to be sure).
