Banana-Pineapple Nut Bread (Healthy) image

This is a great substitute for Banana Bread. It is very dense and very moist. The portions are very generous. This can also be frozen. This is not a super sweet bread. It satisfies my desire for something different. This recipe is courtesy of Joanna Lund. Each serving is only 158 calories. Diabetic Exchanges are: 1 Starch, 1 Fruit and 1/2 Fat. I cooked mine closer to 65 minutes.
