Low Fat Oatmeal Banana Bread

So I stole this recipe off of a blog a while back and it is by far my most favorite low fat banana bread recipe. Throw some chocolate chips in to make it extra deli sh with a few extra calories, and it is Divine!!!

Low Fat Oatmeal Banana Bread

3/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 tsp canola or walnut oil
1 large egg, beaten
2 medium egg whites, beaten
3 large bananas, ripe
1 cup uncooked old fashioned oats

Chocolate chips and butterscotch chips for sprinkling (optional)

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Grease and flour a loaf pan and set aside. In a large bowl, stir together dry ingredients including the oats and cinnamon.

In a smaller bowl, mash bananas with a potato masher or fork. Add oil and whole egg and mix thoroughly.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix well. Batter will be fairly thick. In another bowl, lightly beat the egg whites together then fold into the batter.

Pour batter into pan and bake until top of loaf is firm to touch, 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool in pan for 5 minutes. Flip out and cool on a wire rack for another 10 minutes. Slice loaf into 10 equally sized slices.
