Adapted from a favorite banana bread recipe, this banana bread recipe uses less butter, no sugar, and has lots of fiber. It tastes delicious too! It can be made into a bread loaf or muffins. If you don't have one of the ingredients you can supplement a little more of another similar one (i.e. oat bran for ground flax seed, or walnuts for another type of nuts). Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter (softened) |
1/2 cup applesauce |
2 eggs |
6 small bananas (crushed) |
2 tablespoons honey |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
1 cup flour |
1/4 cup ground flax seeds |
1/4 cup oat bran |
1/2 cup oats |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup raisins |
1/4 cup coconut (shreded) |
1 cup walnuts |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Using a stand mixer, or hand mixer, cream butter and applesauce together.
3. Add eggs, bananas, honey, and vanilla and mix well.
4. Add flour, flax, oat bran, oats, baking soda, salt, and mix well.
5. Fold in the raisins, coconut, and walnuts.
6. Add mix to either greased muffin cups or a greased loaf pan.
7. Bake at 350 degrees - muffins take about 25 minutes, and a loaf takes about 60 minutes.
