Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray one 9x5x3 inch loaf pan with a non-stick cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, beat the white sugar and margarine or butter until smooth and creamy. Beat in the eggs, water and bananas with the sugar mixture until it is well blended.
- Mix in the flour, baking soda, salt and baking powder just until the mixture is moistened. Be sure to scrape the sides of the bowl to blend all ingredients.
- Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degree C) for about 60 minutes. Bread is done when the top is firm to the touch and a golden brown color. Time will vary according to loaf size and oven type. When bread is removed from oven, allow it to cool on it's side for 10 minutes, then remove from pan and let cool on a rack. This bread is also excellent if you add mini chocolate chips or small fruit pieces to the mix just before baking.

LOW-FAT, HIGH-FIBER YUMMY BANANA BREAD
I make this each and every time we have bananas that are over-ripe. I toast slices to have along with my coffee for breakfast. I also use toasted slices to make peanut butter sandwiches for the kids' lunches. Who says if it's good for you it can't taste good too? The original recipe, which I have adapted quite a bit, came from Nick Malgieri's book "How to Bake."

Tips:
- Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your banana bread will be.
- Mash the bananas well: Make sure to mash the bananas until they are completely smooth. This will help to ensure that the banana bread is evenly textured.
- Use a combination of flours: Using a combination of white whole wheat flour and all-purpose flour will give your banana bread a lighter texture and a more complex flavor.
- Add some sweetness: If you like your banana bread to be sweeter, you can add some honey, maple syrup, or sugar.
- Add some spices: Spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger can add a warm and inviting flavor to your banana bread.
- Top with nuts or seeds: Adding nuts or seeds to the top of your banana bread before baking will give it a crunchy texture and a boost of flavor.
