Low-Fat Banana Bread

For more whole grain, substitute one-half cup whole wheat flour for the same amount of all-purpose flour.
1-3/4 C. all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
1 C. mashed very ripe bananas (2 medium)
1/3 cup fruit based substitute for fat or unsweetened applesauce
2 large egg whites
1 large egg

Preheat oven to 350. Grease and flour 9"x5" metal(or glass) loaf pan. In large bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In medium bowl, with fork or wisk mash bananas, fat substitute, egg whites and egg until well blended. Stir banana mixture into flour mixture just until moistened. Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake until toothpick comes out clean, about 40-45 min. Cool 10 min. then remove and place on wire rack to finish cooling.
Makes 1 loaf. Jake helped me make this and he wanted to add raisens. It turned out great!
