My kids and I LOVE banana bread, but depending on your recipe it can be pretty un-healthy! So here’s how I make it healthiER without sacrificing taste.
The recipe I use calls for 1 3/4 C flour. I do 1C AP flour and then 3/4 Whole Wheat flour. Whole wheat flour is richer in fiber, vitamins, and minerals than white flour.
Really let those bananas get brown!! The more aged the banana the more sweet it is, so you can reduce the amount of sugar.
I add pecans or walnuts, whichever I happen to have, for added protein and a healthy fat.
Consider using Greek yogurt as a partial replacement for butter, as it adds moisture and protein.
Trust me, my kids didn’t even notice when I started making these changes. They just gobble it up!!
