As a waste-conscious public, recipes like banana bread are perfect for using up leftovers. Whereas the regular variety is sugar and fat laden, our low-calorie, gluten free banana bread makes perfect sense for dieters, without sacrificing on taste.
Made using our Vanilla Sponge Mix, this recipe could be simpler - its just three ingredients - a packet of our mix, half a teaspoon of baking powder and... bananas. Water too if you want to split hairs. But that's it - mix, bake, cool, enjoy!
All of the sugars are coming from the bananas - our cake mix is sugar-free, meaning you only get natural sugars and all the nutritional benefits of the banana. That includes fibre - with the bananas combined with our mix, each portion supplies just under one third of your daily recommended intake.
