How to Make Low Fat Strawberry Banana Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two standard-sized loaf pans.
  2. In a large bowl, mash 3 ripe bananas until smooth.
  3. Hull and roughly chop 1 cup of fresh strawberries. Add to the mashed bananas and mash gently until combined.
  4. Add 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar (or your preferred sweetener) to the banana-strawberry mixture. Whisk until well combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  7. Gently fold in 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional).
  8. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared loaf pans.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the bread starts to brown too quickly, tent it loosely with foil.
  10. Let the bread cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
