Banana-Oatmeal Bread


A super fast, super healthy recipe for banana-oatmeal bread.

Ingredients:
  1. 1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  2. 1/2 cup unpacked brown sugar
  3. 1/2 tsp table salt
  4. 1/2 tsp baking soda
  5. 1/4 tsp baking powder
  6. 3 tsp canola oil
  7. 1 large egg beaten
  8. 2 medium egg whites beaten
  9. 3 large bananas ripe
  10. 1 cup uncooked old fashioned oats
Method:
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, stir together dry ingredients. Add oil and eggs; mix thoroughly.
  2. In a smaller bowl, mash bananas with a potato masher or fork. Add bananas and oatmeal to batter.
  3. Spray a loaf pan with cooking spray. Pour batter into pan and bake until top of loaf is firm to touch, 45 to 55 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for 5 minutes. Flip out and cool on a wire rack for another 10 minutes.
Personal notes: I used a mix of all purpose flour and whole wheat flour adding up to 1.25 cups. Alternatively, one can use whole wheat flour completely.
