I had 3 overripe bananas and was in need of a good healthy banana bread recipe. I was going to use whole wheat flour anyway so I decided to try this recipe. I made a few substitutions. I used 1/3 cup overflowing with unsweetened applesauce instead of oil, 1/4 cup Splenda and 1 Tbsp honey instead of all honey. I added an extra 1/2 tsp of vanilla and used eggbeaters instead of eggs, adding an extra 1/2 egg or so. I added an extra half banana and subsituted 25% of the flour with soy flour to add extra protein and fiber. I also added 1/2 tsp extra baking soda just to make sure. I then made them in a muffin tin making 12 muffins exactly. I may have undercooked them a little bit at just about 30 minutes, but I also had to put them in the fridge for 2.5 hours because I didnt have enough time to cook them before class. For the health factor involved, these are amazing! They turned out very well, I enjoy them a lot but I probably didn't mash the bananas enough first. I eat either one of these or one of the "addictive pumpkin muffins" every morning for breakfast now with a piece of fruit. Just take one out of the freezer and bring it to work, very simple and incredibly healthy!
