Today, I am sharing with you a loaf that I had baked some time ago to cover up some night cravings. One thing I am not able to do as of now, is if I really want to bake something, I have to think twice, thanks to my umma!!! She is of the strong opinion that all that baking does is to add on calories and sugar and therefore it is a big no-no. How much ever I convince that all baking is not calorie laden, I have failed miserably till date. For instance, this bread, courtesy the VLCC site… All the ingredients are pretty available in the pantry, nothing much complicated, and what more, it uses wholewheat as the main ingredients! I baked it at night, and served it for breakfast the next day morning. We had it just like that, but I am sure it would taste too good with a spoonful of butter or jam or even more, Nutella!!!
Honey Banana Bread
Ingredients
- 2 cups wheat flour
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1-1/2 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon powder
- 1 cup mashed bananas
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 cup milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven at 160 degrees. Grease a large loaf pan and keep aside.
- Mix all the dry ingredients together with a whisk until well combined.
- Now add all the wet ingredients and mix well till fully moist.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread to level on the top.
- Bake in the oven for 45 to 50 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then flip onto a cooling rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.

Seems to be very healthful baking here, so your Umma would be proud. As for why you're at home, maybe I should scroll down to an earlier post for the answer. I"m sure though that you will use up that time to your blogging heart's content :))
as far as my umma is concerned, all baking is unhealthy… i guess it will take me loads of time to convince her… 🙂 i'm actually not getting much time as i would have liked thanks to my sticky little one, but still managing to do so… hehe…
Hope your leg injury is better now, By the way honey banana bread looks delicious. Love that you made with whole wheat flour
yes, it is getting better swathi, thank u so much… 🙂
yummy bread…..Rafee,Hope you r feeling better now…Praying for your speedy recovery….
thank u so much fasee dear… 🙂
