Ingredients

1 cup flour

1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1/2 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned or "quick", not instant)

1/2 tbsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp pumpkin pie spice (a blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves)

2 tbsp canola oil

2/3 cup brown sugar

2 tbsp honey

2 tbsp unsweetened applesauce

1 cup sour cream (light's fine, NI is for 14% M.F.)

1 tbsp vanilla

6 oz silken tofu (I use Mori-Nu lite), pureed

3 medium-large bananas, mashed

Walnuts or chocolate chips for topping (optional, not included in NI)

Directions

Preheat oven to 350F, grease and line a 9x13" pan or two 8" pans.

Whisk together flours, oats, baking powder, baking soda and pie spice in a medium bowl. Set aside.

In a large bowl beat together oil, brown sugar, honey and applesauce until smooth.

Add sour cream, vanilla and tofu puree and again beat smooth.

Add flour and bananas in alternate batches, starting and ending with dry.

Pour batter into prepared pan(s), top if desired.

Bake 25 minutes, rotating pans after 15 minutes.

Cool completely in pans (or chill if possible) before cutting.

This sounds very good! I love the fact that its low fat! Can I sub light cream cheese for the sour cream? And can I omit the tofu? I don't have these 2 items in the house right now and I'm thinking of trying these!

Very very nice combo!! Need bananas, and will throw in flax seed too (lowers cholestereol much better than the pharmaceuticals. has a nutty flavor.

thank you!!

Lillian - do you have yogurt? That's a better SC swap. As for the tofu, you'd have to add two eggs instead, it's a binder. You can try one egg and 2 tbsp of peanut butter too. Good luck!
