Banana Bread

This recipe came from my first childhood sweetheart's grandma. It mkes a couple of large loaves, 2 9" cakes or 24 generous cupcakes. I put some of it into small mini muffin tins for me and made the rest up in full size ones for my family. As I was mixing the recipe, I realized it could be a lot lighter. The sugar could be reduced or substituted entirely with Splenda and the eggs could be replaced with egg substitute which would cut the calories by 12 per mini-muffin and with all the banana, you could probably cut down on the shortening too. I'll have to experiment next time.
