The Best Banana Bread

So in my journey to eat well I am always searching for new recipes that are healthy replacements to my favorites.  A friend gave me this recipe for banana bread that uses applesauce to keep it moist.  The bread can be stored in the fridge for a yummy snack at any time of the day.  ENJOY!

2 ½ cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
1 cup sugar
3 egg whites (you can also use egg beaters)
½ cup applesauce
4 large rip bananas (mashed)
1 tsp vanilla
Dash of nutmeg

Preheat oven to 350.  Spray loaf pan with cooking spray.  Wisk together applesauce, sugar, banana, eggs, and vanilla.  Gently blend in flour baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg.  Pour batter into pan and bake 50-60 minutes.  Due to the moist ingredients the toothpick test may not come out clean.  Be cautious to not over bake.  Cool completely before slicing (if you can wait that long).
