Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly coat an 8x4-inch loaf pan with cooking spray.

  2. Combine bananas, buttermilk, egg whites, and oil in a medium bowl. Mix well.

  3. Combine flour, oats, sucralose blend, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center, add banana mixture all at once and mix well.

  4. Reserve 1/8 cup pecans and stir the remainder into the batter. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle reserved pecans on top.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes.

Recipe Note

A modified version of banana-chocolate chip bread from the American Diabetes Association's 2004 'Healthy Calendar Diabetic Cooking,' this version cuts carbs and fat even more by using Splenda® baking mix, better oil and less of it, and pecans instead of chocolate chips.
