Instructions
Step 1: Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Step 2: Prepare Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the mashed bananas, vanilla extract, melted butter, unsweetened applesauce, and beaten eggs. Mix until well combined.
Step 3: Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, monk fruit sweetener (if using), salt, and baking soda.
Step 4: Mix Batter
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure a tender loaf.
Step 5: Bake
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake for 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 6: Cool and Serve
Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
