Healthy Banana Bread with Weetabix This delicious and easy-to-make banana bread recipe incorporates Weetabix for extra fiber and a unique texture. It's a healthier alternative to traditional banana bread, perfect for breakfast or a snack. About Time: Yield: 1 loaf (16 slices) Prep Time: 15 minutes Cook Time: 45 minutes Total Time: 55 minutes Ingredients: 3 Weetabix 300ml skimmed milk 2 very ripe bananas 2 large eggs 3 tablespoons sweetener (such as Sukrin Gold) 150g self-raising flour 2 teaspoons mixed spice ½ teaspoon baking powder 150g mixed dried fruit (or sultanas) Instructions: Prepare Weetabix: Place Weetabix in a jug and pour over milk. Let it soften for 15 minutes until it forms a thick mush. Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F). Line a 1kg loaf tin with parchment paper or grease well. Combine ingredients: In a mixing bowl, mash the bananas. Whisk in eggs, sweetener, and the softened Weetabix mixture until well combined. Dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together flour, mixed spice, and baking powder. Combine wet and dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently to avoid overmixing. Fold in the dried fruit. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin. Bake for 45 minutes, then loosely cover with foil to prevent overbrowning. Continue baking for another 30-40 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool and serve: Let the bread cool completely in the tin before slicing and serving. Tips: Ripe bananas: Use very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness. Sweetener: Adjust the amount of sweetener to taste. Freezing: Freeze individual slices for easy grab-and-go snacks. Enjoy this healthy and flavorful banana bread!
