Is moist and made with less oil and sugar than normal banana bread recipes. It is low in calories and only 3 WW Freestyle points per serving!
We love bananas in our house even though we eat them often, it also means that sometimes ripe bananas end up in the fruit bowl.
This means that I can use them in all sorts of recipes or as a quick snack without blowing out my points for the day.

This recipe is really easy. As soon as I notice bananas starting to get really ripe, I make sure I have all the other ingredients on hand.
Start by combining the flour and brown sugar with baking powder, baking soda and sea salt. Give it a good whisk to combine and get out the sugary lumps.

Add the canola oil, eggs and egg whites and mashed bananas to the bowl. I use a small stand mixer to combine them easily.
Once everything is well combined, fold in the rolled oats with a wooden spoon or silicone spoon so that the banana bread has a lovely thick texture when cooked. (don’t use the mixer for this part!)
I use a loaf pan lined with parchment paper for the batter. Since I plan to make 16 servings, it makes it easier to slice later, right down the middle and then into 8 slices.

Into the oven for 45-55 minutes. You will know it’s done when a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
This banana bread is moist and rich with a lovely texture. Bananas and brown sugar give it the sweetness but it really just has a hint of sweetness.
At only 124 calories, a piece of this banana loaf can fit into anyone’s day. It is very low in total fat and has less than a gram of saturated fat.

What I love most is that it has only 3 Weight Watchers freestyle points a serving. I have it most mornings for a quick breakfast with some fresh fruit and a bowl of shelled English peas (call me crazy but I love them!)
I get questions all the time about my Weight Watchers recipes. Here are a few commonly asked questions that deal with storage and shelf life.
I try to slim down almost any recipe I post on the blog. To lighten up this bread I made the following substitutes:
Chocolate Banana Bread {healthy & Moist}
The good news is an emphatic yes! This moist banana bread freezes beautifully. When I make a loaf of this simple banana bread recipe, it gives me 16 servings.
When I am down to the last piece on hand, I just take out the frozen pieces and leave the container on the counter for a few hours to thaw out.
They are ready to go the next time I have a yen for a piece of banana bread. The banana bread will keep well for 2-3 months in the freezer.
Whole Wheat Banana Bread With Oats
Yes, the recipe can be made for muffins just as it can for the loaf pan. Use a normal sized muffin pan for best results. (Mini muffins will likely dry out too much.)
The main difference is that the cooking time for muffins is much lower than it is for the loaf pan which requires at least 45 minutes in the oven.
For the muffins, cook for about 14 minutes and remove to a wire rack to cool. (test after 10 minutes) If you make 24 muffins, they will be only 2 WW Freestyle points each!
Banana Oat Bread
We are on a roll with the yes answers today! Remember that we started with very ripe bananas to make this tasty banana bread loaf?
Signs of spoilage is a bad odor, mold forming and discoloration in general. If you see these happening, it’s time to discard the remains.
BUT… as long as you practice safe storage, you won’t have a problem. I store my loaf 1/2 in the freezer and 1/2 in a sealed container on the fridge.

Microwave Banana Bread Recipe
I have to confess, I'm not a huge banana fan. I do like having them around the house for a quick bite when I'm hungry though.
I'm very picky about their degree of ripeness when I eat them out of hand though. In my opinion, if the bananas have any brown spots, the only thing they are good for is banana bread or muffins.
So, as you can guess, I almost always have bananas that are too ripe to eat out of hand (in my opinion) laying around.
The Best Banana Bread
I still love this recipe for Easy Banana Bread, but now that I'm back on the Weight Watchers wagon, I was looking for something a little more program friendly.
That's when I found the recipe for banana bread with oatmeal on their site. This bread is healthy comfort food I can get on board with!
The first time I made it, I made no changes to the recipe or the technique, and while the flavor was awesome, there was just something about the texture I didn't care for.
Healthy Pumpkin Oatmeal Banana Bread
The second time I made it, I ground up the oats into a flour and added some vanilla and a little cinnamon. The second loaf had just the right texture...a little chewy, but not dotted with big hunks of oats. I had a keeper!
This recipe is perfect for making muffins instead of bread. Line a muffin tin with paper liners and scoop the batter into each well to fill approximately 2/3rds of the way.
Bake in a 375 degree F oven for approximately 25 - 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
