Peanut Butter Banana Bread

Peanut Butter Banana Bread
PointsPlus® Value: 4

Servings: 10
Serving Size: 1 slice

1 and 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1 whole eggs
1 egg whites
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup brown sugar Splenda Blend
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tbsp pumpkin pie spices (or a combination or cinnamon and nutmeg)
1/2 tsp salt
2 ripe bananas (the riper the better)
1/3 cup lite vanilla yogurt
1/3 cup reduced fat crunchy peanut butter

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
2. Place the bananas, with the peels on, in the oven for about 10 minutes until the skins become completely black. This will caramelize the banana and add more intense flavor to the bread, and also is a great trick if your bananas aren’t completely ripe. Let them cool.
3. Combine all of the dry ingredients – flour, splenda sugar blend, pumpkin pie spice, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
4. Mash the bananas using a fork and then whisk together with the egg, egg whites, yogurt, and peanut butter.
5. Pour the banana and egg mixture into the dry ingredients and fold together.
6. Pour everything into a bread pan, sprayed with non fat cooking spray, and cook for around 35 minutes or until bread has risen and a toothpick comes out clean.
