    I might try to use baking splenda with this recipe instead...

    the extra ripe bananas might make it sweet enough without the added REAL sugar. That probably would cut the calories by a third or so..just a thought!

    I'm not much of a baker (actually, I don't bake at all) but I don't use sugar or any substitutes. If you make this without the added sugar, please let me know how it comes out and I'll get my friend (who bakes all the time) to make this for me. Sounds really great!

    Thanks for sharing
