Brown Sugar Banana Bread made with Sugar Substitute

1:51 AM
Brown Sugar Banana Bread, rich caramel flavor provided by the addition of brown sugar totally compliments the bananas in the banana bread recipe.



Are you a fan of Banana Bread so much so that you find yourself craving it and wishing you could make it with fewer calories? 

That is how it is with me, so I decided to make one using the recipe I make most of the time and substituting a Brown Sugar Substitute in place of the sugar.



WHAT YOU WILL NEED TO MAKE BROWN SUGAR BANANA BREAD WITH A SUGAR SUBSTITUTE



  • Butter

  • Eggs

  • Soda

  • Flour

  • Sugar Substitute (Truvia, Splenda, Pure)

  • Bananas




HOW TO MAKE BROWN SUGAR BANANA BREAD WITH A SUGAR SUBSTITUTE


  • Preheat oven 350 degrees F. Lightly grease tube pan with butter and lightly dust with flour; set aside.


  • In the mixing bowl of an electric mix using the paddle attachment, cream butter, and your choice of brown sugar substitute (I used Truvia Brown Sugar)


  • Add eggs one at a time, and beat well. Sift dry ingredients and add to creamed mixture. Fold in the bananas.


  • Bake in the prepared tube pan for 55-60 minutes. Cool before slicing.


  • Cooks Note:  If you want to use regular brown sugar, use the same amount as for Splenda or Truvia. 

The aroma of the Banana Bread coming out of the oven was incredible.

As I was taking it out of the oven, you could see that it was a wonderful golden brown crust with little chunks of bananas peeking out. I like to dice my bananas instead of mashing them.

The bread was very moist and sweet---just what I was looking for without all the calories.

Hope you get to make some soon! Enjoy!
