Lower Carb, Higher Moisture Banana Loaf

My stepdad (a Type 2 diabetic) has a massive sweet tooth when it comes to fruit - especially bananas. Banana bread is one of his favourite snacks, but traditional sugar-free recipes can be so dry that it's not worth it to him to bother. This recipe combines Splenda, honey and Demerara sugar with roasted bananas and ricotta for a ton of moisture, while low-carb chickpea and almond flours help balance the carb load in the batter. This freezes really well, even pre-sliced and wrapped in plastic for lunches!
