Healthy Banana Bread

I had a bunch of OVERRIPE bananas that were just begging to be transformed into Banana Bread!  I searched for a healthy recipe and found this from Honey We're Healthy.   The girls rolled up their sleeves and helped me get to work.

I was a bit skeptical about the end result.  I have never attempted a healthy banana bread and my favorite naughty banana bread is from Paula Dean...buttery, moist and tastes more like a cake than a bread.  I am happy to say this recipe exceeded my expectations.  Not as sweet or moist as Paula but still DELICIOUS!  Happy Baking!
