Whole Wheat Banana Bread

Here's another whole wheat breakfast bread recipe. This is adapted from the Banana-Raisin Whole Wheat Bread recipe on the Gold Medal whole wheat flour bread (which is apparently not available on their website):
  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup wheat germ
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar or 1/3 cup molasses (or just leave out the added sugar)
  • 2/3 cup plain nonfat yogurt
  • 1/3 cup oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups mashed bananas
  • 1 cup chopped prunes (or raisins)
  • 1 cup walnuts
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • Mix the dry ingredients
  • Beat the eggs, then whisk in the sugar, yogurt, oil, vanilla, the bananas and the prunes
  • Mix the dry and wet ingredients
  • Add the chopped nuts
  • Bake 1 1/4 hour to 1 1/2 hours
This is the one that stuck to the Crofton unglazed stoneware. I bought the pan because it seemed better, but I think it's mostly better for things one eats fresh, and I bake these "quick breads" Sunday and don't start eating them until the next day.
