Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9x5 loaf pan lightly with cooking spray or butter.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of unsweetened applesauce, 1 cup of Truvia sweetener, and 2 eggs. Whisk together until smooth.
  3. Mash 3 overripe bananas and add them to the egg mixture. Pour in 1/4 cup of skim milk, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice or cinnamon. Stir until well combined.
  4. If desired, fold in 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or chocolate chips into the batter without overmixing.
  5. Gradually add 1 1/2 cups of whole wheat flour to the mixture, folding gently until just combined.
  6. Pour the prepared batter into the greased loaf pan, smoothing the top. Optionally sprinkle spices or toppings on top.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, checking for doneness with a knife or toothpick.
  8. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
