Healthy Banana Bread with Cranberries & Walnuts
Instructions
Pre-heat oven at 350. Grease a bread baking dish(I used parchment paper inside the baking pan)
Mix all dry ingredients except for walnuts and cranberries in a mixing bowl.
Mix all wet ingredients in another mixing bowl. You can use a hand mixer on low to mix the wet ingredients or mix them by hand.
Pour wet into dry as you slowly stir until well mixed. Add walnuts and cranberries and stir to mix.
Pour the mixture into the bread pan and bake for 40 to 55 minuets depending on the size of pan, or until a toothpick inserted to the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool on the rack for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. Put the left-over bread in a large ziplock bag to prevent it from drying. This banana bread is low-fat and will dry if it is not sealed.
Alternatively, you can also pour the mixture into lined muffin pan and bake for about 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
