    We love sweet breads like our Weight Watchers Banana Bread and breakfast breads but they are not always healthy due to the added fat from oils found in them.

    Enjoy the bread with or without the oats, because either way, this bread is healthy and delicious.

    Step One:

    Mash up bananas, or use a mixer to get the bananas all mashed up good.

    Step Two:

    Add in the canned pumpkin. I tend to stock up on canned pumpkin and sometimes even 

    order canned pumpkin on Amazon

    when it's out of season and difficult to find in the stores.

    Step Three:

    Mix dry ingredients together in separate bowl.

    Step Four:

    Combine wet and dry ingredients together. Mix until well incorporated.

    Weighing in at 3 ½ Weight Watchers Points per slice Weight Watchers Banana Bread is also a great option served for breakfast alongside some low fat yogurt or fresh fruit.

    Really, this bread is so delicious whether you're enjoying it for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a snack.

    The recipe makes 24 slices- we slice the loaf down the middle and then cut each half the loaf into 12- making 24. You could also make mini muffins instead and enjoy a couple mini muffins with fruit for breakfast.

    WEIGHT WATCHERS BANANA PUMPKIN BREAD

    This delicious banana bread can be served up for breakfast or a snack.

    Pair Weight Watchers Banana Bread up with a little bit of yogurt and berries and you've got a healthy and delicious lunch that is perfectly balanced and intensely enjoyable.

    We're pretty partial to our Sinfully Delicious Yogurt Parfait... that really isn't sinful at all.

    Quick Banana Bread Recipes

    This recipe is very hearty, delicious and moist and is recommended to be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

    Banana Bread is always great heated up for a few seconds in the microwave as well.

    The fresh fruit and pumpkin in this Weight Watchers Banana Bread Recipe provide plenty of moisture there is no need for added margarine or butter on top.

      I made the recipe with the addition of the oatmeal. I baked it in muffin cups for portion control. I got 24 muffins at 2 SPs each. I thought they were quite yummy! Thank you for something simple and quick that uses up my ripe bananas too.

      I could not find a sugar free spice cake mix so I used the Pillsbury Supreme Moist sugar free yellow cake mix that is sweetened with Stevia. I added cinnamon, pumpkin spice mix, and ginger to compensate. I thought about adding a pinch of cloves and a few grinds of nutmeg but this still had a nice spice.

      Thank you!!

        The calories are posted right under instructions. Says 112 calories, which is really good but one loaf is 24 slices. They must be really tiny litlle slices. Never thought you could ven cut a loaf in 24 slices.

        The amounts of other ingredients should be the same, but your calorie count and points would be different. Walnuts sound like a yummy addition!

      But can you really cut 24 slices from one loaf? Even 12 slices would be small portions.

      Reply
      • Mary Stacey

        January 12, 2018 at 6:51 pm

        That is exactly what In thought. That is why each slice is only 112 calories.

        I am with you. My great husband made it for me because it was a WW recipe and we had some bananas to use. So thoughtful of him to research for a WW banana bread recipe, right? But 1.) it isn't banana bread, it is pumpkin bread. Bananas help make it moist, but there is no banana taste to it. Only pumpkin. But that is okay, I like pumpkin bread too. 2.) when he told me how many servings were in it and the points, I thought I believe I could have eaten a lot more of other pumpkin and/or banana bread/cookie recipes out there for 3 to 4 points. The bread is delicious, but a very small portion for the points.

      The recipe makes 2 leaves, each cut into 12 slices. That gives you 24 slices total for the recipe.

      This sounds delicious, & I’d love to make it. It would be extremely helpful to some of your readers if you could first list all of the ingredients, as usually done in cookbooks & other printed recipes. It’s very charming to have a step by step format. However it makes it extremely awkward to gather ingredients & measuring tools. It would also be nice to include what size pan to use. I don’t mean to be critical, & I may be the only one who finds your format confusing & nerve wracking to follow. I plan to try this, but I know I will have to rewrite it into a more familiar recipe format.
