Banana Bread

I made this tonight. It has no eggs, and no oil.
It is very healthy for us! And yes, this is my second Banana Bread recipe.
The last one was very good, but I don't always have the ingredients on hand.
This one, I do.
And tasty too! Zachary has had 2 slices, and it just came
out of the oven 20 min ago.
