For a low fat baked treat, this is really good....and I didn't even have enough bananas!! I used whole wheat flour instead of white and threw in a tbsp. of vital wheat gluten flour and a whole individual cup of applesauce (which is about 1/2 cup). I upped the cinnamon, used some nutmeg. Otherwise, I followed the recipe. This is a keeper!

Flavor was good, but the texture was rubbery. I know this can be a problem for breads made without fat. Buttermilk is often a useful substitute for up to half the desired amount of applesauce when baking, especially when oil serves as the only source of liquid (which I suspect it would be in the fattening version of this bread). I plan to try this change next time.

Do not omit salt in this recipe, and also, as for any bread or muffin recipe, mix wet and dry ingredients separately and then add dry ingredients to the wet ones just until moistened...it is ok if batter appears lumpy when there is fruit in the recipe. I also added vanilla and nutmeg, and as suggested by another rater, a brown sugar and water syrup poured on top makes this bread top crunchy and sweet, however I also added salt in the syrup topping.

We think these are great! We added a bit of vanilla for more flavor, but they are delicious (I say they as we made them into muffins, no bread pan at home to make it in!). Great for a low fat treat!

For being almost non fat this is pretty good! yes a wee bit rubbery HOWEVER I will take a wee bit rubber over full of fat anyday. The taste is just as good as the reg. banana bread. Will definitely be making this one all the time!

YUMMMMMY!!! I can't give this 5 stars just because I made quite a few alterations. I used about a 1/2 cup of white sugar (topping the measuring cup up with brown sugar), I used 1 cup of all purpose flour and 1/2 cup of whole wheat flour, I used 1 tsp of cinnamon, 1/4 tsp nutmeg and 1/4 tsp ground clove. I used one whole egg and I had to throw in a bit more applesauce in order to achieve the right consistency. The extra spices really did the trick. Absolutely amazingly delicious!

Great low-fat choice! I followed the advice of others re using a little salt and nutmeg, and substituted part of the sugar with Splenda. I only had cinnamon applesauce on hand, which worked great. It made 9 large muffins, baked for about 24 minutes. While they aren't as good as the neighborhood bakery, they have a LOT fewer grams of fat. Thanks!

Delicious!! My husband even liked it (of course I didn't tell him it's HEALTHY haha) I made a few small changes due to the reviews of others-a little salt and nutmeg, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1/3 cup of applesauce, mixing the wet and dry ingredients separately first...turned out great!! A little "rubbery" perhaps, as others say, but it still tastes great!!

This is the only recipe for Banana Bread I use now. I have made this several times over the last 6 months or so and everyone loves it. Highly recommended.

The texture of the bread was almost heavy... not light and fluffy like the not-so-healthy kind. BUT it was delicious.

I have been using this recipe for almost 5 years and love it. Most of the time I follow it exactly as it is written, although I occasionally will add vanilla and nutmeg as well. Never had a problem with it. It is a very dense bread and is great for breakfast with a cup of coffee. Out of all of the banana bread recipes I have tried, this is my favorite because it is delicious, and healthier for you than your average banana loaf. 5 stars!

I actually used 1/4 cup splenda brown sugar (which equates to 1/2 cup), a humped 1/4 cup of white sugar, eyeballed about a 1/4 tspn nutmeg and 1/2 tsp of salt, used 1 egg instead of whites, 2 bananas, and self rising flour so I omitted baking soda and powder.Very good.. not rubbery at all.

We love this and make it often. I don't think we change anything. It does dry out quicker than breads with more oil, so plan to eat it the same day!
