Banana Bread
OK this is how pitiful my social life is. It is Saturday night on the 4th of July weekend and I am baking banana bread out of my too ripe bananas....I substituted in an old recipe. I put total protein flakes instead of bran flakes, splenda instead of sugar, and butter instead of Crisco....................... I'll let you know how it turns out. Might be
It didn't turn out half bad. Helped with the sweet craving I was having. Doesn't happen often but when it comes it is with a vengence!
1/3 C shortening I used butter
3/4 C sugar I used splenda
1 egg well beaten
2 C bran flakes I used total protein flakes
1 1/2 c flour I should have tried some of that almond flour but

2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
