Banana Bread

"I took my mom's recipe and made it a bit healthier. If you want to make it extra moist, you can double the applesauce and yogurt (to 1/2 cup each)."

  1. Great recipe! I followed the recipe, except I used eggbeaters, 3 bananas and skim milk. They made 9 beautifully domed muffins that baked for 25 minutes. I'm going to use this recipe as a basic and try adding nuts, chocolate chips, etc. Thanks again!
     
  2. Very tasty. Liked the added texture the whole wheat flour gives this. I used the brown sugar, but replaced the white sugar with Splenda. Very moist for being lowfat! Thanks for this keeper.
