MOIST BANANA NUT BREAD

Moist Banana Nut Bread image

I made up this recipe when I was vegetarian and didn't eat eggs. It's packed with fiber, omega-3s and soy protein, but tastes delicious! Silken tofu is a wonderful egg substitute. It's one of the best ways to make banana bread. -Brittany Carrington, Tehachapi, California
