This bread is B-A-N-A-N-A-S! It uses applesauce instead of butter or oil.
Prep Time15 minsCook Time1 hrTotal Time1 hr 15 mins
Ingredients
2 cups flour
¾ cup sugar (sometimes I use a combination of white and brown sugar)
3 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp salt
1 egg
¾ cup milk
¼ cup applesauce (a 4oz lunch box container)
1 ½ cups mashed ripe bananas (about 3 bananas)
½ cup mix-ins like chocolate chips or nuts (optional)
Directions
2Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl, mixing well.
3Combine all wet ingredients in another bowl, mixing well.
4Add liquid mix to dry mix and stir just until mixed (don't overmix or bread will be tough).
5Fold in nuts or chocolate chips.
6Pour batter into greased bread loaf pan and bake for approximately 55 to 65 minutes. Begin checking the color of the bread at around 50 minutes. Once it's golden brown, insert a toothpick into the center of the loaf to check if it's done. Toothpick may be moist from bananas, just make sure it's not moist from batter.
7Once done, let bread cool in pan for about 5 to 10 minutes, then run a knife along outside edge to loosen sides.
Notes
8This might also be tasty by adding a little vanilla!
