Ingredients

  • ¾ cup unbleached all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup whole wheat flour
  • ¼ cup milled flax seed
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ cup butter, at room temperature
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup granular sucralose sweetener (such as Splenda®)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • ½ cup nonfat plain yogurt
  • 3 medium bananas, mashed
  • ½ cup chopped walnuts
  • ½ cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips (Optional)
  • 1 tablespoon chopped walnuts

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.

Step 2
Mix all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, flax seed, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg in a bowl. Beat butter, brown sugar, and sucralose sweetener in another bowl until light and fluffy. Beat eggs, vanilla extract, and lemon juice into butter mixture until well combined.

Step 3
Stir flour mixture into butter mixture until smooth. Add yogurt, bananas, 1/2 cup walnuts, and 1/2 cup chocolate chips, stirring until batter is just blended. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle remaining 1 tablespoon walnuts and 1 tablespoon chocolate chips on top of batter.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 70 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
