This is a fabulous recipe for banana bread! This can also be baked in mini loaf pans and it also makes 12 muffins, bake for 20-25 minutes. I also added in some shredded carrots and nuts then baked it in a 9x5-inch loaf pan, for less fat use low-fat yogurt or sour cream Ingredients:

1/3 cup low-fat sour cream (or use full-fat) or 1/3 cup low-fat yogurt (or use full-fat) |
1/4 cup applesauce |
2 teaspoons vanilla |
