SKINNY BANANA BREAD

I had never experienced an ice storm until I moved to the midwest, and they are no joke! We’ve had a few in the last couple of years that kept everyone one home, like today. You’re driving in your car and the “rain” falling on your windshield immediately freezes to ice. The streets become a sheet of ice but it’s really hard to tell it’s even there, which it makes it dangerous to drive on.
It’s kind of fun having an excuse to hunker down at home with my family, though. We play games and do puzzles and pick a fun a movie to watch.

Do you want to know how to make banana bread?  You are in the right place.  I like to bake something warm and comforting like this Skinny Banana Bread.  My kids love it and I love that it’s healthier than regular banana bread. Plus, it makes my house smell amazing.
The main reason I really love this skinny banana bread recipe (besides the obvious fact that it has way less sugar and fat than any traditional banana bread recipes) is that it has FOUR large bananas mashed into it.



Most recipes have 2 or 3, max. I love extra banana flavor it gives the bread, and it makes the bread really moist.
I like to use really, really ripe bananas. Like, so ripe that the skin is black, and my husband is begging me to remove them from our kitchen counter :-). The riper the banana, the sweeter it is, the easier it is to mash, and the more sweetness it adds to the bread.

Ingredients

  • 4 bananas , about 1 1/3 cups, mashed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 3 Tablespoons light brown sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (white or white-whole wheat)
  • 2 Tablespoons unsalted butter , melted

Instructions

  1. Grease a standard 9x5'' loaf pan (I also like to line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper to make sure the loaf doesn't stick).
  2. Mash bananas in a mixing bowl. Add egg, vanilla, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon and stir well to combine.
