--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2                    bananas -- ripe, mashed
     1/2  cup           canola oil like Crisco
   2      large         eggs
   2      tablespoons   frozen orange/pineapple. conc.
   1 3/4  cups          flour
   2      teaspoons     baking powder
     1/4  teaspoon      baking soda
     1/2  teaspoon      orange peel
                        cooking spray
 

Preparation:

I used 1 large egg white plus 6 tbsp. egg substitute, 1/8 tsp almond extract, orange juice concentrate, 2 cups unbleached flour and no orange peel. Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a 9 by 5 inch loaf pan with waxed paper and spray with cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine bananas, oil, beaten egg, juice concentrate and orange peel. Stir dry ingredients together and then stir them into banana mixture until just blended. Spread the batter in the pan and bake for 45 minutes or until the top is lightly browned. Cool in a pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice the first sample while the loaf is still warm. Comment in the original recipe states that the well-wrapped loaf keeps in the refrigerator and freezes well. Slice is smaller than a slice of regular bread (about half size).
