Banana Bread – Light

Course Dessert

Ingredients

  • 4 large ripe bananas – approx. 1 1/2 cups mashed
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
  • 5 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp melted butter

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F degrees.  Place your flexipan mold or tray of choice on your perforated baking sheet.
  • Mix together (using your whisk or mixer) banana, egg, vanilla, maple syrup & cinnamon. In another bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until combined. Using your blender spatula, fold in melted butter.
  • Pour batter into mold or tray of choice.
  • Bake for 30-40 minutes depending on the size of your mold. Check for doneness after 30 minutes but understand that a full loaf like the one pictured will take 35-40 minutes to cook and individual muffins like a mini muffin will cook in about 20 minutes. I would check muffins after 18 minutes.
