Banana Bread

Delicious and healthy!  Yes, it's true.

This is an adaptation of a recipe I saw through a Facebook friend (thanks Jodi) and I adapted it to match the less healthy recipe I was using.  I bet you can do this with any recipe.  Simply substitute coconut oil for butter, egg whites for all egg, and honey instead of sugar.

Ingredients:

3 over-ripe bananas
1/3 cup melted coconut oil
1/2 cup honey
1 egg white
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. baking soda
dash of salt
1 1/2 cups flour (could use 1 3/4 if you wanted to make it a bit "heavier")

Directions:

Mash bananas in a medium mixing bowl.  Add all of the ingredients and stir together.  Do not beat.  Pour into a greased loaf pan and bake at 350 for about 55 minutes.  Cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then remove from pan and let it cool completely on a wire rack.

Enjoy!  This is a delicious banana bread that even my teenager loves.  It is truly moist, delicious, and cholesterol free.
