How to Make Banana Bread With Cauliflower

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan, or two mini loaf pans.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, ½ teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional). Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together ¾ cup granulated sugar and ½ cup vegetable oil until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in 2 large egg whites until combined.
  5. Mash 3 ripe bananas with a fork. Add mashed bananas and 1 cup cauliflower puree to the wet ingredients. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan(s).
  8. Bake for 55-60 minutes for a 9x5 inch loaf, or 25-30 minutes for mini loaves, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
