The Best Low-Point Pineapple Banana Bread
Servings: 10 slices
Points: ~1–2 WW points per slice
🛒 Ingredients:
- 2 ripe bananas (mashed)
- 1 cup crushed pineapple in juice, drained well
- 2 eggs (or 1 egg + 2 egg whites for lower points)
- ½ cup unsweetened applesauce (replaces oil)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup self-rising flour (or flour + baking powder)
- ¼ cup zero-calorie sweetener (like erythritol/stevia blend)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Optional (adds slight points):
- 1–2 tbsp chopped walnuts
- Unsweetened coconut flakes (light sprinkle)
👩🍳 Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
Line a loaf pan with parchment. - In a bowl, mix:
- Mashed bananas
- Drained pineapple
- Eggs
- Applesauce
- Vanilla
- In another bowl, combine:
- Flour
- Sweetener
- Cinnamon
- Salt
- Add dry ingredients into wet mixture and stir until just combined.
(Don’t overmix — keeps it soft!) - Fold in optional nuts/coconut if using.
- Pour into pan and bake 45–55 minutes until golden and set.
- Cool before slicing (important so it holds together like your photo ✨)
💡 Tips for Lowest Points:
- Use egg whites instead of whole eggs
- Skip nuts/coconut or use very small amount
- Make sure pineapple is well drained (keeps texture perfect)
