Whole Wheat Banana Nut Bread


Submitted by peden

"This is a moist banana bread recipe that I make fairly often with leftover, very ripe bananas. I usually freeze my old bananas until I have enough for a recipe or two. Just peel, break in half, and freeze in a plastic bag. To use, just thaw and add to mixing bowl. I have also used applesauce in place of the oil to make this low fat. It is not quite as moist, but the flavor is still just as good." Peggy modified by me Original recipe yield: 1 - 9 x 5 inch loaf
