Not as gooey as other recipes, but one of my families favorites becuase it's very healthy AND tasty. If you have too few bananas, it will be dry ... so don't just put in 3 - make sure it's 3 large'uns. Also, Bananas that are ALMOST too ripe to eat, but not quite, work best.
Banana-Oatmeal Bread
This nutritious bread is easy to mix up and will make the whole house smell wonderful.
Ingredients
1 1/4 cup(s) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup(s) unpacked brown sugar
1/2 tsp table salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1 large egg(s), beaten
2 large egg white(s), beaten
3 large banana(s), ripe (or 3 1/2 medium, or 4 small)
1 cup(s) uncooked old fashioned oats
1/2 to 2/3 cup(s) unsweetened applesauce
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, stir together dry ingredients. Add applesauce and eggs; mix thoroughly. In a smaller bowl, mash bananas with a potato masher or fork. Add bananas and oatmeal to batter. Spray a loaf pan with cooking spray. Pour batter into pan and bake until top of loaf is firm to touch, 45 to 55 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for 5 minutes. Flip out and cool on a wire rack for another 10 minutes. TIP: Cut a rectangle of parchment paper the exact size of the bottom of the bread-pan, and after placing in the pan, spray it with cooking spray before pouring in the batter.
