So you know how they say that before you off to college - "beware of the Freshman 15"?
Well for me it was more like that times four. One year I came home at Christmas and was given the Better Homes and Garden "New Dieter's Cook Book" as a present. No, my family is not known for their subtlety.
Still, this book has some awesome recipes and my favorite one is their low calorie banana bread. This treat completely makes up for the pie debacle!
Here's the recipe:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 slightly beaten egg whites
1 cup mashed banana
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup cooking oil
Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt.
In second bowl mix egg whites, banana, sugar, and oil.
Line a loaf pan with aluminum foil or use a non stick pan. Combine all ingredients. Bake at 350 for 45 - 50 minutes.
