Recipe Remix - Banana Pumpkin Bread




Banana Pumpkin Bread
Ingredients:
2 cups of flour (whole wheat or white)
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
½ cup unsweetened applesauce
1 cup honey (can use half honey, half sugar)
2 eggs at room temperature
1 tsp vanilla
2 medium ripe bananas
½ cup of canned pumpkin
½ cup plain Greek yogurt


Directions:
Preheat oven to 325’
Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt in 1 bowl. Combine the applesauce and honey until creamy, add eggs 1 at a time and vanilla and blend briefly. Peel bananas and mash with a fork measuring out ½ cup, add to applesauce mixture and blend. Add ½ cup of pumpkin to applesauce mixture and blend. Add Greek yogurt to the applesauce mixture and blend. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture 1/3 at a time until well blended.
You can either make muffins or make a loaf. If you are making muffins cook about 20-25 minutes they are done when you insert a toothpick and it comes out clean. If you are using a loaf tin bake for 70-75 minutes it is done when you insert a toothpick and it comes out clean.

Let cool and enjoy!

The original recipe calls for butter, sugar and sour cream. I hope I cut the calories and fat in half!!
