Whole Wheat Banana Strawberry Loaf or Muffins
- Number of Servings: 24
Ingredients
2 cups whole wheat flour 1 teaspoon baking soda 2 eggs 5/8 cup vegetable oil Canola or oilve would be better)1 1/2 cups white sugar - I subsitute Splenda(recipe info is calculated using Spelnda) 3 bananas, mashed 1 cup chopped strawberries 1 pinch ground cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease and flour loaf pan. In a large bowl combine flour, baking soda and cinnamon. Set aside. In a medium bowl blend together with an electric mixer the oil, sugar, eggs and banana until well combined. Add banana mix to the flour mix. Add the strawberries. Mix with a spoon until combined. Do not overmix. Pour the mix into the loaf pan and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the loaf is well browned. Note: Blueberries or chocolate chips are great in place of the strawberries.
For muffins: I added 1/4 cup water, to make the batter more 'muffin'y (ie, to make it runnier when I pured it) could probably have added another 1/4 cup water. Baked them at 350 for 30 mins. For me, it made 11 muffins, but I filled my tins a little too full. Would definately make 12 smaller ones. It was sooo yummy I had to have two, and had to have DH try one, and he said they were good, too!!
**You may try subbing some of the oil for applesauce to lower the amount of fat. ** if you sub w/ choc chips, you may want to add water or more oil, that would keep it moist.
**I am assuming that 2 slises of the bread would about make up 1 muffin, that's where I get that the bread serves 24.... let me know if this is wrong!
