13 Reviews of Low Fat-Sugar Free Banana Bread

Very good. I used 1/2 all-purpose flour and 1/2 whole-wheat. I used the OJ and decreased the Splenda to 3/4 c as my bananas were very ripe. Also, I tossed in 2 Tbs of chopped pecans. Thanks for the recipe help!

    I made this recipe because my diabetic son is coming home for the weekend. Good thing I made two loaves because my husband and I have pretty well finished off one of them. It is very good bread. I used 1/4 cup applesauce and 1/4 cup oil because I thought it needed a little fat in it. Thanks for the recipe.

    Great recipe! I also used whole wheat flour and the low fat (skim) milk. I did not have the applesauce so I splurged and went for olive oil. Additionally I added 1 Teaspoon of cinnamon. I think I could have even doubled that. Great bread!

    I made this reciepe with wholewheat flour and brown sugar substitute. Everyone loved it! I froze a couple loaves and they don't last very long but nice alternative to all the fat!

    I am a gastric bypass patient and get a craving for sweet breads and/or muffins every now and again. This was indeed very dense as most sugar free low fat recipes are. The flavor was right on though and the recipe makes a large loaf. I used milk instead of OJ. The flavor is not overly sweet. Great job!

    I really enjoyed this recipe. It was a great alternative to the very fattening, sugary regular banana bread. I doubled the recipe and made 6 mini loafs. I added an extra banana (bc I had it) and a bit of splenda brown sugar. Its a bit dryer than I prefer in a sweet bread so next time I'm going to reduce the flour a bit. the taste is subtle but spot on, it also smells just as wonderful as regular banana bread! Great Recipe!

    Thanks for this recipe. I made it exactly as written except that I had a different sugar substitute so I assumed that we were to use sugar substitute to equal 1 cup of regular sugar. I cannot stand banana bread, but my husband loves the stuff and he really liked this recipe, plus he's thrilled I've found a banana bread recipe that's so much healthier.

    Twisted the recipe a little and came out great!!! Instead of applesauce, used 1 small chopped gala apple, instead of 1 cup splenda, I used 1/4 cup splenda and 1/4 cup brown sugar. Added 1/4 cup oil. Almost as good as full fat and sugar recipe!!!!

    This was a good banana bread. I used skim milk instead of OJ. Not to overpowering on flavor, but still good. Thank you for the recipe.

    This tastes so good! I had already started mixing the ingredients, and realized that I had no bananas, so I chopped up a cup of strawberries instead! Yummy! I can't wait to try it with bananas. I will make this often I am sure! It is hard to find good, sugar free recipes, but this one hits the spot!
