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.

  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).
