Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
Step 2
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.
Step 3
Add the egg whites, non-fat yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Stir until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Step 8
Allow the banana loaf to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Slice and serve the banana loaf warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
