I made this combining several different recipe ideas. The base recipe was from Nancy Clark's book "Sports Nutrition Guidebook". I highly recommend this book if you want good, sensible, nutrition information for athletes.
Ingredients
3 large bananas, mashed (at least 1 cup)
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup dry cocoa
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup skim milk
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 - 1/2 cups flour (white or whole wheat)
Method
1. In a large bowl, mix mashed banana, applesauce, cocoa, and milk.
2. Mix dry ingredients and stir in banana mixture.
3. Spread in 9" X 9" pan.
4, Bake for about 30 minutes, at 350 degrees. Watch it, my oven is a bit iffy so I checked it several times and I took it out when it was slightly underdone.
5. Let cool, cut into 16 squares. Eat or freeze.

I saw your link to the food blog & was pleased to find this recipe. Our youngest has egg allergies, so this looks interesting.
Thanks!
I have a horrible sweet tooth and tried this recipe last week. It was satisfying and easy to follow! Thank you.
