Weight Watchers Banana Bread Recipe

{Click to Pin It}

One of the things I always miss when trying to eat healthy are sweets. This weight watchers banana bread recipe is only 1 PointsPlus per mini muffin or 3 PointPoints per slice.  It fits right into my daily point allowance and is truly the perfect treat to satisfy that craving I have. Not only is it full of potassium and fiber thanks to the bananas, but it is amazingly moist and so much like a traditional Banana Bread that you won’t be able to tell that it is actually lower in fat and calories.

Weight Watchers Banana Bread Recipe:

INGREDIENTS

3 Ripe Bananas Mashed
¼ Cup Coconut Oil
1 Cup Splenda
1 Cup All Purpose Flour (sifted)
1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Weight Watchers Strawberry Pie Recipe
{Pin It}

A sweet and tasty summer treat, this Weight Watchers Strawberry Pie is a yummy and low calorie way to indulge your sweet tooth. Fresh, light strawberries, tangy jello, and creamy pudding combine to create a filling that satisfies cravings, but is more forgiving of your waistline than most desserts.  This pie is 3 PointsPlus per slice.

Try other variations such as chocolate for the pudding, or make it with different berries like raspberries, blueberries, or blackberries and the same flavor of sugar free Jello.  To lighten it up even more, pour filling directly into a pie pan and skip the crust.
