Banana blah...

I am on the hunt for a low-fat banana bread recipe and have 5 that I am going to work through over the next few weeks. I had 4 very ripe bananas so I used two in this recipe and am saving two for tomorrow when I attempt another recipe. This one was good except for the fact that the cooking time was way off. 1 hour of cooking = burnt, dry banana bread.

I added mini chocolate chips instead of pecans in order to make it a bit more of a dessert and these are the only reason why I am eating it... slowly :)

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • 2 bananas, very ripe
  • ½ cup egg substitute
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans (I subbed mini chocolate chips)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray a 9x5 loaf pan with nonstick spray. In a medium bowl, combine flours, salt and baking soda; set aside. In a large bowl, mash bananas with fork; add egg substitute, honey, flour mixture and pecans. Scrap into prepared pan and bake 1 hour or until tests done.
