Introduction

If you have to have banana bread, try this recipe. It's a variation of one I found online but with some substitutions. I have made it many times with different types of substitutions but this seems to be the best combination.
You don't have to make these as a mini-muffin but the portion control helps. If you make a loaf, I imagine it will be hard to slice into 30 pieces. You can simply double the calorie intake and slice your loaf into 15 pieces.

Ingredients

    1 2/3 cups basic white flour
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup Splenda
    1/2 cup + 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
    2 eggs
    1 cup unsweetened applesauce
    2 medium bananas, very ripe, mashed
    2 Tablespoons sour cream
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    1/2 cup milk chocolate chips

Directions

Set the oven to temperatures listed with bake times below. Spray bottom of whatever type of pan you are using. When making mini muffins fill 3/4 of the way. When making regular muffins fill only half way (and count for double the servings). Or for a loaf, use parchment paper at the bottom and the loaf will simply just lift right out.

Sift together flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Beat sugar and eggs with a wire whisk for a few minutes. Add applesauce all while stirring. Add mashed bananas, sour cream and vanilla. Fold in dry ingredients and this is where you could add anything extra like nuts or other fruits (try adding blueberries....it's yummy).
Pour into the loaf pans and bake for approximately
20 minutes at 325 for mini muffins
25 minutes at 325 for regular muffins
and
45 minutes at 350 for loaf
keep a close eye on the color to ensure it does not burn
