Lower Calorie Banana Bread




Note: Normally prepared banana bread is, apparently, roughly 90 calories/oz even without nuts.

Preheat oven to 350.

Mix:
4 bananas, mashed up
2/3 cup fat-free milk
2 teaspoons sugar-free vanilla syrup (note: 4 teaspoons of vanilla extract instead adds 1.3 calories/oz at the end)
2 tablespoons Smart Balance Buttery Spread, melted

Separately, mix:
2 2/3 cups wheat flour (white flour is same calories, just not as good for you, apparently)
1 cups Splenda
2 tsps baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt

Mix two sets of ingredients together
Spray non-stick cooking spray on two ~5" x 9" baking pans
Split mix evenly into each
Bake ~ 50 mins or until center is set

Overall, slightly less than 50 calories/oz.
