Low-Fat Banana Bread

Description: When I substituted some of the butter with applesauce in a previous recipe, it actually made the bread more moist. I put one loaf in the freezer, but had to take it out within 24 hours because the first was devoured!

Ingredients:

• 4 very ripe bananas
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 egg
• 2 tablespoons applesauce

Steps:

1. Mash bananas in a bowl.
2. Add all other ingredients and mix well.
3. Pour into 2 greased loaf pans (or you can pour it all into one, but it rises enough that you can split it in half).
4. Bake at 350 degrees for 50 to 60 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into center of cake comes out clean.
