Ingredients

  • Spray a nonstick cooking spray generously.
  • Add 1 ¾ cups of versatile all-purpose white flour.
  • Incorporate 1 teaspoon of baking soda and ½ teaspoon of salt.
  • Pour in ⅓ cup of applesauce and ½ teaspoon of flavorful maple syrup.
  • Crack in 2 large eggs and mix with 3 ripe mashed bananas for extra richness.
  • Blend in ½ cup of non-fat plain Greek yogurt and ⅓ cup of low-fat milk.
  • Enhance the flavor with 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and ½ teaspoon of aromatic ground cinnamon.
  • Sweeten to your liking with 2 teaspoons of brown sugar (Optional).
  • Finish off with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon for that extra touch.

Step 1

Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and show some love to an 11x7-inch baking dish with a light coating of cooking spray.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, engage in a gentle dance of sifting flour, baking soda, and salt together. Meanwhile, in a larger bowl, combine the sweet melodies of applesauce and maple syrup, followed by a harmonious addition of eggs. Whisk until a smooth blend is achieved. Introduce bananas, yogurt, and milk to the symphony, mixing until a textured yet unified composition is formed. Stir in vanilla and a hint of cinnamon, then gradually fold in the flour mixture with a touch of finesse using a trusty wooden spoon. Pour this delightful batter into your prepared dish, and sprinkle with a dash of brown sugar and cinnamon to add a touch of magic.

Step 3

Let this creation bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center emerges clean and content, usually around 50 to 55 minutes. Allow it to cool for a brief interlude of 10 minutes on a wire rack. Finally, slice and serve this delectable treat, savoring each moment of its creation.
