Banana Bread

This recipe has 2 versions...you can make it with applesauce or plain yogurt - the choice is yours!

Ingredients

  • 3 medium bananas

  • 1-1/2 c. sugar

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 c. applesauce OR 1 c. plain yogurt

  • 2 T. milled flaxseed

  • 1 t. vanilla

  • 1-3/4 c. flour

  • 1 t. baking soda

  • 1 t. salt

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Lightly grease (and sugar - optional*) your loaf pan. Using an electric mixer, mix the first 6 ingredients. Stir in the remaining ingredients until well mixed. Pour batter into pan and bake for 1 hour. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick in the center.

*Adding sugar to the pan after greasing makes the crust harder/crispy.
**Bake times may be more than 1 hour depending on humidity level, etc (especially with the applesauce version)...if the top of the bread starts to brown before the inside is done place a piece of foil over the bread and continue baking.
