LITE 'N MOIST BANANA NUT BREAD
This recipe was based on "Very Moist Banana Bread" in RecipeZarr. I lightened it up by using less sugar, and substituting applesauce for the oil. Some banana tips: This bread is best with very ripe, black bananas. Put ripe bananas in the freezer. They will ripen a little more and stay usable for several months. The frozen bananas will thaw in less than an hour at room temperature. You can also ripen a banana in the microwave. Start with 30 seconds. Add 15 more seconds, continue until ripe.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease or spray 2 8" x 4" loaf pans.
- Use very ripe bananas, 5 is best. In a large bowl, mash bananas.
- Add eggs, vanilla, and applesauce and blend.
- Add dry ingredients and stir well. (1/2 cup Splenda Plus for baking may be substituted for sugar).
- Dissolve baking soda in milk. Put this in a container bigger than one cup. It will foam up a lot.
- Add milk mixture to rest of ingredients and mix well.
- Fold in nuts and pour into greased pans.
- Bake for about 1 hour and 5 minutes depending on your oven. Start checking for doneness at 55 minutes. (especially with Pyrex pans)
- For a moist bread, a toothpick should come out almost clean. Totally clean will mean a dryer loaf.
- After removing from oven, let cool for 15 minutes and remove from pans. Bread will freeze nicely.
