Categories     Baked Goods

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

500 grams (~17.5 ounces) peeled, overripe bananas (about 2 1/2 cups mashed from about 5-6 medium; see notes)
1/4 cup melted coconut oil or neutral-flavored oil of choice
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla or banana extract
1 ¾ cups white whole wheat flour (see notes)
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ cup mix-ins such as chopped walnuts or pecans, raisins, chocolate chips (optional; see notes)

Steps:

  • Set oven to 325F and lightly grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan, or 3 mini loaf pans.
  • In a large bowl, combine the bananas, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract and mix with a whisk until well combined. If you have a food scale, you can skip the mashing! Weigh your bananas, then combine with the wet ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth.
  • Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and any mix-ins; stir just until combined. Pour batter into your prepared loaf pan(s).
  • Bake for 60 to 75 minutes for a large loaf (35-40 minutes for mini loaves) or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out completely clean. Allow the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack and let it cool another 15-20 minutes before slicing.

This is more of a moderated version of a baking mix banana bread, made with less sugar and the addition of flax seeds for an omega boost! I picked the recipe up off a website somewhere and wrote it down on a note pad. I altered the sugar and honey amounts, and added the flax.

LOW-SUGAR BANANA BREAD



Low-Sugar Banana Bread image

I used to make my banana bread with 2 1/2 cups sugar. This recipe has only 1/2 cup sugar. It also uses half whole-wheat flour. It is not as sweet as the banana bread I used to love, and it has a courser texture from the whole-wheat flour. But the family still eats it up like candy. Use white whole wheat flour if you can find it. Also, make sure the bananas are VERY ripe (but not rotten... yuck). Without much sugar, this recipe really relies on very ripe bananas to sweeten it.
