Whole Wheat Banana Bread

By: Kathy Merrick

"'A hint of orange livens up this moist and nutty banana bread,' says Kathy Merrick from Hammond, Indiana. 'I've taken loaves to potluck suppers and they are always a hit.' She suggests trying a slice for breakfast or as a sensibly scrumptious snack."

Original Recipe Yield 20 servings

Ingredients

1 cup whole wheat flour
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup toasted wheat germ
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon grated orange peel
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 medium navel oranges, peeled and sectioned
2 medium ripe bananas
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/4 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup chopped pecans

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients. In a food processor or blender, process the oranges, bananas, sugar, eggs, oil and vanilla until smooth. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in pecans.
Pour into two 8-in. x 4-in. x 2-in. loaf pans coated with nonstick cooking spray. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
