If you want to try something healthy and different, here’s a recipe for Banana Bread With No Bananas! Call it “Zucchini Walnut Bread” if you want, but somehow that doesn’t conjure up the image of the incredibly delicious treat that it deserves …
This fake banana loaf has the same moist dense consistency, and looks a lot like the real thing. There’s no banana flavor, of course, but it is nevertheless a healthy and yummy treat for all ages to enjoy.
This a popular bread to enjoy in the morning for breakfast, or any other time of day.
Here are the ingredients for Zucchini Walnut Bread:
3 eggs
1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed firmly
1 cup oil
2 cups zucchini, grated finely
1 1/3 cup walnuts
1 1/2 cups self-raising flour
1 1/2 cups plain flour
After mixing all of the ingredients together, there are only two steps left:
- Pour into a 15cm x 25cm loaf tin and bake at 180C for 75-90 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
- Leave loaf in tin for five minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to cool.

Im sure it’s good. But, what’s so unhealthy about eating banana bread once in a while?
Love it
Esp the oil
Walnuts !
Too much sugar
Use a healthy sugar substitute like stevia, Dianne! Here is some useful information: http://www.energyhealthteam.com/all-natural-sugar-substitutes/
Really ? Just because you put zucchini in it does not constitute it healthy. Come on now look at the sugar and flour. There are way better options.
Yum, yum, yum. I’ve had this b4, soo good.
