Guilt-Free Banana Bread
Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/8 cup nonfat plain yogurt
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 2 1/3 cups mashed overripe bananas
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, or 175 degrees Celsius.
2
Next, lightly coat a 9x5-inch loaf pan with a thin layer of cooking spray to prevent the bread from sticking.
3
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and a pinch of salt. Mix these dry ingredients together until well combined.
4
In another large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream 1/2 cup of brown sugar with 4 tablespoons of softened butter and 1/2 cup of plain yogurt until the mixture becomes light, fluffy, and noticeably lighter in color.
5
Add eggs one at a time to the wet mixture, beating well after each addition to ensure everything is fully incorporated.
6
Now, incorporate 2-3 mashed bananas into the wet mixture until they are well blended.
7
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring just until everything is moistened.
8
Transfer the batter to your prepared loaf pan.
9
Pop the loaf pan into a preheated oven and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, which should take around 60-65 minutes.
10
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
