#recipe: Banana Bread

I got this awesome banana bread recipe from my friend (she took it from the Internet). I am so glad she shared that recipe with me because this banana bread is so delicious and healthy (that's the best part!).

So, if you want to make a moist and delicious banana bread without sugar and butter, this recipe is meant for you! ;)

Ingredients:

1 heaping cup mashed banana

1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 egg

3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (or coconut, rice, oat milk)

1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour

1 cup rolled oats

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

3/4 teaspoon baking soda 

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

How to make:

1. Preheat oven to 180 C degrees (350 F). Cover your loaf pan with baking paper (or spray it with nonstick cooking spray). 

2. In large bowl combine mashed banana, applesauce, honey/maple syrup, egg, almond milk and vanilla until well combined and creamy. In separate medium bowl whisk together whole wheat flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda (I didn't have it and I just left it out), salt and cinnamon. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients and mix until just combined (don't overmix!).

3. Pour into prepared load pan, sprinkle oats over top (if desired) and bake for 60-70 minutes.

4. Remove from oven and place on wire rack to cool. Enjoy this delicious and moist banana bread! Keep the bread tightly wrapped to maintain its moisture.
