The one thing about my bread is that is more like Walnut Bread with bananas. I don't even measure the walnut, I just had hand fulls. I love nuts in my bread. Yours looked great.

Texture-wise, it seems pretty identical to my sweeter version. It's just that the sweetness level is significantly lower. I could get on board with making one of the above quick breads a go-to bread - even to accompany a meal. The recipe I've used for years has too much sugar and oil in it for me to consider making and eating it very often. I imagine raisins would be terrific in this bread. Maybe even blueberries??? Hmmmm... you've got my wheels turning!Beckihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16940604077427078249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180424865669168363.post-90851295418930474672020-02-11T19:35:05.643-05:002020-02-11T19:35:05.643-05:00I tried one with rice flour and was impressed that...I tried one with rice flour and was impressed that it turned out. I have another recipe that uses spelt flour but both are very high in the Glycemic index. I have been trying to sub honey or Coconut Palm Sugar for white sugar in all recipes. Coconut palm sugar does not spike blood sugar like refined does. (Per our nutritionist) We had to get used to the fact coconut palm sugar is brown and therefore some baked goods would be a different color because of it.Leftycrafterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07607852055622555069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180424865669168363.post-44405557446963309102020-02-11T18:57:41.549-05:002020-02-11T18:57:41.549-05:00Banana bread!

I do like the idea of less sugar and subbing honey. I use whole-wheat for mine. <br /><br />It sounds as if yours is less like cake and more like bread, as it is supposed to be! Off to test your recipes now. <br /><br />PS: I sometimes add in a few chocolate bits..dark chocolate, says she virtuously.Boudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00641013916263271948noreply@blogger.com
