Low Fat Honey Banana Bread

Recipe #53952 | 1¼ hours | 15 min prep | SERVES 16 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Lily Orleans Mura

I started with a recipes from Fat Free Baking & changed it a little. It is good for a breakfast bread, but you need to be careful that it doesn't get dried out.

    Wonderful! I didnt have any honey so I used splenda sugar and increased the milk to 1/2 cup. Was very moist and not too sweet, just right. Great recipe!

    So easy and great tasting! Made it 3 times this week, for ourselves and some friends! I find that by adding more milk or water, the bread`ll turn out less dry.

    This was really good! Couldn't believe there was no oil in it. Great with some cream cheese or a big glass of milk. My boyfriend is diabetic, among other health issues, and is on a low fat low sugar diet. We try to eat alot of whole grains too, and this was a great way to use up extra bananas. Thanks so much...will make again!
