Bike ride banana bread
Similar to my original banana bread recipe…but slightly lower fiber, lower fat, and higher carb; optimized to fuel you during a long bike ride!
Ingredients
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
3 tbsp brown sugar
3 tbsp molasses
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp pumpkin spice mix
1/3 tsp ground cardamom
1/4 ground nutmeg
4 very ripe bananas, mashed
1 tsp lemon zest
1/4 cup walnut oil
1/3 cup plain yogurt
4 oz applesauce
3/4 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups oats
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine wet ingredients and dry ingredients in separate bowls. Mix wet ingredients into dry ingredients using a stand mixer, hand mixer, or a spoon and your muscles. Pour into a parchment paper or oil lined loaf pan. Bake at 350°F for 1 hour, or until a knife comes out clean when inserted. Let cool and enjoy!
