healthy banana bread??

SoDamnHungry

banana's are not our friends 2 bananas tips you over your sugar intake for one day - as much as I love them - I'm steering clear.

Bananas are awesome. And natural sugars are awesome. Love your bananas!

This is my fav....I use mini loaf pans so each one is 2 slices because it makes 8 mini loaves.

This also has all the values with it as well...appx 105 calories per slice...

My current favourite is

The recipe for the loaf cake as is:

175g ground almonds
2 eggs
Big dollop of honey
125g butter
4 mashed bananas
3 tablespoons of cocoa (I use green and blacks)
1 teaspoon each bicarb and baking powder
85% chocolate chopped into chunks.

Melt the butter and add the honey, eggs and bananas. Stir, then add everything else and give a good old mix until combined. Pour into a loaf tin and bake at 180 for around 40 minutes. That's it!

Has anyone posted the recipe that is pretty much just banana and oat flour? I'll find it if you'd like!

Here it is anyway if anyone is curious!

2 large eggs
1/3 cup honey (can be a lot less than this! especially if you can only find sweetened apple sauce like me)
3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cup oat flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (more or less as you prefer)
1 1/2 cups mashed ripe bananas
