Ingredients
1/4 cup walnuts
DRY INGREDIENTS
2 cup unbleached white flour
2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
WET INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup oil
3/4 cup fruit sweetener
3 eggs
2 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup mashed bananas, (2 md size)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray two bread pans with lecithin
spray. Toast the walnuts in the oven for 7-10 minutes, stirring
occasionally. Allow the nuts to cool. Then coarsely chop them with a knife
or with a pulsing action in a food processor. Put them aside. Sift the dry
ingredients together. Use an electric mixer on medium speed to whisk the
oil and the sweetener together until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the
eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Reduce the speed and
stir in the vanilla and the mashed bananas. On low speed, slowly add the
sifted dry ingredients and the toasted walnuts. Mix just until blended,
being careful not to overmix. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pans.
Bake the loaves on the middle shelf of the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes
until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Cool the loaves slightly before removing them from the pans and cooling
them on a wire rack. When cool, wrap the breads in plastic wrap and let
them sit overnight at rom temperature before slicing (if you can wait).

Diet informationThe South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a diet plan created by Cardiologist arthur agatston which stresses that dieters should be eating "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbohydrates" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Agatston invented his nutritional system for his cardiac patients, as a consequence of his detailed study of scientific data completed on other weight loss systems. Good foods include, canadian bacon, turkey breast, prawns, fat-free cheeses, pecan halves, lowfat yoghurt and certain vegetables, like kidney beans, cucumbers and turnips. The Glycaemic Index Diet The gi (or glycaemic index) nutrition system is based around the gi index, a chart showing food types and an indicator of the ease that the carbohydrates in the food gets transformed to glucose in the dieters blood stream. The claim is that slow release foods (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic score), suppress your appetite for longer and help to eat less food without craving snacks all the time. It's also extremely effective for people with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are useful in reducing increases in blood glucose secretion. The Zone Diet The Zone diet is a nutrition and weight loss system first invented by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet isn’t exactly a weight loss diet, however many zone diet followers claim that they seem to lose body weight by following this system. The 'science' claimed for the Zone Diet is that if one can manage to limit the secretion of insulin and glucogen (both hormones), then anti-inflammatory chemicals are released which, in turn puts one's body in a balanced state which is much, much more healthy than it normally is, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone". Sears alleges that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is working at its best and, as a result, doesn't need to build up stores of fat. The most important technique of the system is to maintain the exact ratio of carbs to proteins, and to make sure your diet has high levels of Omega 6 and omega 3 fish oils. |
