If you are wanting to give up sugar, there are a few options for substitutions that are better choices. I am all about Bananas, Apples, Raisins, and Dates. So today I tried my hand at Date Nut Bread, and it turned out fantastic. It is definitely not a sweet bread, but works great for me, and feel free to add a thin layer of nut butter if desired. For each serving it is only 340 calories, 39.6g carbs, 6g fiber, 33.6g net carbs, 13g protein and 15g fat. Perfect for breakfast, snack, or a pre/post work out fueling. ;)
Ingredients for two loaves, 8 slices total~
2 medium ripe mashed Bananas
6 Extra Large Eggs
1/2 cup/4oz unsweetened Applesauce (make your own or I use Mott’s)
3 cups Oats
1 cup Almond Flour
12 chopped Dates
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
Dash Vanilla
Dash Cinnamon
1/4 cup chopped Walnuts
Add Bananas to large mixing bowl and beat til smooth, blend in Eggs, then Applesauce, followed by remaining ingredients, except for Nuts. Divide batter equally into two parchment lined loaf pans, and sprinkle with Walnuts. Bake at 350 for 40 minutes. Enjoy 😊
