Banana Bread With Splenda is a scrumptious way to enjoy a classic treat with a twist. Packed with flavor and made with healthier substitutes, the recipe keeps the deliciousness while reducing sugar. You’ll find every slice satisfying and moist, perfect for breakfast or a snack.
For those looking to make adjustments, you can swap the walnuts for pecans or even omit them entirely if allergies are a concern. Using ripe bananas is key, as they add natural sweetness and moisture. If you’re looking for a dairy-free option, consider using almond milk instead of skim milk. Remember, quality ingredients can make a difference in flavor and texture, so choose wisely.

Banana Bread With Splenda Recipe
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons Smart Balance butter spread
- 1/4 cup applesauce
- 2 eggs
- 2 tablespoons skim milk
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup mashed banana
- 1 3/4 cups flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup walnuts, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease a loaf pan.
- In a mixing bowl, beat together 4 tablespoons of Smart Balance butter spread, 1/4 cup of applesauce, 2 eggs, and 2 tablespoons of skim milk until well combined.
- Stir in 1 cup of mashed banana until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- In another bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: 1 3/4 cups of flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
- Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet mixture, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, as that can lead to a dense loaf.
- Fold in 1/4 cup of chopped walnuts, if using, for that delightful crunch.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly.
- Bake for about 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow it to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
