NO SUGAR OR WHITE FLOUR MOIST BANANA NUT BREAD

Pour the dry ingredients in the banana mixture and beat until blended. Add nuts and stir. Pour into a greased loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Check for doneness with toothpick.
• NOTE: *WHITE whole wheat flour is made by the company King Authur and can be found in any grocery store usually. This is the best whole wheat flour because it's made with yellow wheat which is lighter than red wheat so it doesn't have that heavy taste. It's great for baking healthy and acts like regular flour but always add more moisture like vege oil or apple sauce, etc. when using any whole wheat flour. My family doesn't like whole wheat baked goods except when I use this kind of flour. Whole wheat pastas are also made with yellow as well as red wheat so if you don't want real heavy pasta try to find one that is lighter in color and that will be the one made with yellow wheat. I didn't know any of this until I started working as a secretary for a wheat mill in Quincy, MI.
