Healthy Banana Bread


I got this delicious bread recipe from my friend Aubrey Gibson. She made me some and it was gone so fast! Make this bread it is so yummy and Healthy:)

1 1/2 c whole wheat flour (I grind mine on the pastry setting for this recipe, but I'm sure you could use coarser flour if you want)
1 tsp Rumford or other aluminum free baking powder
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp real salt
1 egg
3/4 c sucanat
1/2 c plain yogurt
1/4 c melted butter (I use melted unrefined coconut oil)
1 c mashed ripe bananas
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 c toasted pecans/walnuts (optional)

Mix together dry. Add wet ingredients and mix well. Spray bottom of 8x4" bread pan (makes 1 this size or two small loaves). Bake 350 degrees 50-60 minutes. Remove from pan and cool.
