Yield: 14 Servings

Ingredients

      1 c  bananas; * see note
    1/2 c  sugar
    1/2 c  plain nonfat yogurt
    1/4 c  margarine; melted
      1 tb vanilla extract
      1    egg
      1    egg white
      2 c  all-purpose flour

    1/2 ts baking soda
    1/4 ts salt
    1/4 c  pecans; chop/toast
      1    baking spray with flour

Instructions

Compared to a traditional banana bread, this one has half the sugar and fat
but tastes just as sweet and delicious.

* 3 small very ripe bananas, mashed.
Combine first 7 ingredients in a large bowl; beat at medium speed of an
electric mixer until well blended.
Combine flour and next 3 ingredients; stir in pecans. Add flour mixture to
banana mixture, stirring just until moistened. Spoon batter into an
8-1/2x4-1/2x3-inch loaf pan coated with baking spray with flour. Bake at
350 degrees for 1 hour and 5 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in
center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes in pan on a wire rack; remove from
pan, and cool completely on a wire rack.

Yield: 14 servings (serving size: 1 slice).
