Banana-Oat Bread with Chocolate Chips


We've made a lot of banana bread this semester. Three recipes in two months, in fact, which forced me to pick favorites. My personal favorite was this Weight Watchers recipe that featured lots of oats and egg whites. We added the chocolate chips:)


1 1/4 cup(s) all purpose flour
1/2 cup(s) unpacked brown sugar

1/2 tsp table salt

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp baking powder

3 tsp canola oil

1 large egg(s), beaten

2 medium egg white(s), beaten

3 large banana(s), ripe

1 cup(s) uncooked old fashioned oats

Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, stir together dry ingredients. Add oil and eggs; mix thoroughly.

In a smaller bowl, mash bananas with a potato masher or fork. Add bananas and oatmeal to batter.

Spray a loaf pan with cooking spray. Pour batter into pan and bake until top of loaf is firm to touch, 45 to 55 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for 5 minutes. Flip out and cool on a wire rack for another 10 minutes.
