Banana Nut Bread Recipe with Splenda: Simple Sweet Treat, Perfect for Beginners!

Okay, so I tried to make this banana nut bread, but I wanted a healthier version, you know? So I thought, why not use Splenda instead of regular sugar? I’ve been trying to cut down on sugar lately.

Getting Started

First things first, I preheated my oven to 350F. While that was warming up, I grabbed a 9” x 5” loaf pan and gave it a good spray with some cooking spray. Gotta make sure that bread doesn’t stick!

Mixing Dry Ingredients

Then, in a big bowl, I mixed all the dry stuff. I whisked together some flour, the Splenda Sweetener, baking powder, baking soda, a bit of cinnamon, a pinch of nutmeg, and some salt. I just kept whisking until everything was all mixed up nicely.

Mashing Bananas

In another bowl, I took some ripe bananas and mashed them up. I used a fork cause I couldn’t find my potato masher at the time, but it worked well. This is the fun part, smashing up those bananas, until they’re all mushy and ready to go.

Combining Wet and Dry

Now, here’s where it all comes together. Into my mashed bananas, I added oil and buttermilk. It was kind of tricky to stir together well. After that, I mixed the wet and dry ingredients all together. Making sure everything was combined well and no dry spots were left.

Baking

I poured my mix into the loaf pan and baked it at 350 for about 60 minutes. But my oven is kind of weird, so it took a little longer to be ready. I kept an eye on it, and when it turned a nice golden brown, I pulled it out.

The Results

Alright, let me tell you, the bread smelled amazing when it came out of the oven! It rose pretty nicely too. I let it cool for a bit before slicing into it.

  • Taste: Not bad! It was definitely sweet enough, thanks to the Splenda. I was actually surprised how well it worked.
  • Texture: It was moist and had a good crumb. Maybe a little denser than regular banana bread, but still really tasty.
  • Overall: I’d say it was a success! It’s a great way to enjoy banana nut bread without all the extra sugar. I’ll be making this again for sure.

So there you have it, my little baking adventure with Splenda banana nut bread. It’s all about trying new things in the kitchen, right? And hey, if you’re looking for a healthier take on a classic, give this a try. You might be surprised!
