i have never tried adding banana in but thats because im doing a super low carb thing. Im sure the small amount you would get in a slice wouldnt really have an affect though so maybe i will try that. I would probably look up what spices normally go into banana bread and make any adjustments needed. DaVinci sugar free syrups have a bunch of flavors....they might even have a banana one to kick up the flavor. hmmm... good idea. let me know if you try it.


where are you from btw?

Just an FYI for ya hon, Splenda is not a zero calorie sweetener like they advertise it to be.

Refined white sugar runs 4 cals per gram. Splenda (and almost all store bought sucralose off-brands) runs about 3 cals per gram.

Splenda is 'fluffy' because the manufacturers add maltodextrin to the pure sucralose powder, creating more volume to make it even in sweetness to the same weight of pure sugar. That's where the cals come from.

So if you're trying to low carb it, and you're using Splenda, keep in mind that those carbs/cals add up pretty quick.

Hey IK thanks. Yea i usually track my splenda consumption in fitday with the rest of my food. I did the Atkins thing for a long time so im pretty familiar with their conversion charts on cals/carbs per tsp. Thanks for the heads-up though.
