Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent results, here’s helpful nutrition data This recipe is missing the serving size. So, using Lose It! app, I calculated that, cut into 9 (1-inch wide) slices, each slice is 143 calories, using my ingredient substitutions: whole wheat flour, 1/2 a cup of Truvia sweet complete, 1 teaspoon of molasses, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, coconut oil, whole milk kefir.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing Banana Bread I do a lot of baking but try not to use too much sugar. This bread is the best! I used whole wheat flour and added chopped walnuts. I think this may have been one of the best banana breads I’ve ever made!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Reduced Sugar Banana Bread The recipe I used asked for 1/2 cup of butter and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. It was very good. I noticed the reduction of butter to 1/3 cup, and vanilla to 1/2 teaspoon when I was searching for the 180 calorie slice(s) per loaf. My friends liked the original recipe. I am wondering if the reduced butter/vanilla recipe is as good, or did I write the wrong recipe down a few years ago.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Moist and delicious I tried this recipe and switched the buttermilk to plain nonfat yogurt and it came out very moist and the taste is delicious. I like that it is not super sweet but sweet enough for banana bread. I love banana bread but i am trying to cut back on sugar and calories for keeping healthy. I am happy I can still enjoy flavorful banana bread with less sugar and calories and more protein.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Alternative Banana bread is one of my favorite sweets and now I can make it without worrying if the added sugar is going to affect my blood sugar. This is very tasty and a wonderful alternative to the full sugar version.
