Reduced Sugar Chocolate Chip Banana Bread image

When my 10-year-old son was diagnosed with Type I (insulin-dependent) Diabetes, I had to alter some of our often-used recipes to reduce the carbs counts. Banana bread tops his list of treats, so I adapted our family's favorite banana bread recipe by decreasing the overall amount of sweetener and using half Splenda. This recipe makes the moistest, yummiest banana bread without being able to tell that the sugar is reduced.

This bread was a disappointment. It was dry and crumbly, and the banana flavor was barely there. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

This bread was just okay. It wasn't as moist as I would have liked and the flavor was a bit bland. I probably won't make it again.

This bread was a disaster! It was dry, dense, and the chocolate chips were burnt. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

Reduced sugar banana bread? I was skeptical, but this recipe proved me wrong! The resulting loaf was moist, flavorful, and not overly sweet. It was a hit with my family, and I'll definitely be making it again.
