Additional Information:
Store-bought banana bread is super sweet and unbearable for us. This is a reduced sugar banana bread. The original recipe calls for 70g of sugar, but I have reduced it to 50g and it still tasted sweet enough. I brought it over to my Bible study group and they all liked it. They like the fact that it is not super duper sweet. This is a very nutritious snack (apart from the butter) as it contains egg, bananas, almonds, cinnamon and wholewheat flour.
I have to bake it for an hour instead of 45 minutes, as the bread is way too wet when I baked it for 45 mins.
Next time I will use oil and mix it this way: in another mixing bowl, add 4 eggs and 60g sugar and mix well. Add 340g mashed banana, 75g vegetable oil and mix well.
