Healthy Banana Bread Recipe

5.12.09 | diet

I love bananas. I have at least one every day with my breakfast. Bananas are loaded with vitamins and minerals. They are a particular good source of vitamin B6, and also provide folate, potassium and soluble fibre.

I also like to bake, and it isn’t easy to find healthy recipes. I’ve combined my love of bananas and baking to come up with a great banana bread recipe.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup wholemeal self-raising flour
• 1 cup wholemeal plain flour
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 2 eggs
• 5 medium size bananas
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 180C
2. Mash bananas and mix in beaten eggs
3. In a separate bowl mix all of the other ingredients
4. Combine the banana mix with the dry mix, and stir
5. Pour the mixture in to a non-stick bread tin and cook in oven for 45 minutes.

This makes a great morning or afternoon snack. Enjoy.
