I had 3 bananas that I needed to do something with besides throw away. Kiddos won't eat brown bananas.... I searched the Internet and found a recipe. I tweaked it a little and this is what I made up
3 or 4 ripe bananas
1 1/2 cup of unbleached flour (or you can use 3/4 cup wheat 3/4 cup white or all white)
1/2 cup sugar (half of what the real recipe called for)
1 cup unsweetened apple sauce (real recipe called for 2 tablespoons and then 2 tablespoons of butter since I want LOW fat I used NO BUTTER)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1/2 cup walnuts (optional)
Mash up bananas then add all the ingredients. This literally took me 10 min. I filled up my loaf pan half way as well as 5 muffin cups with this mix, ran out of mix for the 6th. Bake at 350 for 55 min. I took the Muffin pan out after 30 min!!!!
I have not tried this yet it is still baking BUT it smells AMAZING! I will post a pic and let you know how the kids and I like it a little later!!! ;0)
.........
OK I tried one of the ones out of the muffin pan. It was very good!!! Remember this is a LOW FAT recipe!! It was not as sweet as the original recipe! If you want you could add a little more sugar or sweetened applesauce but by doing that you are adding more calories.
I think it tastes good as is! ;0)
