Low-Calorie Banana Bread

I have to admit, I was a little bit skeptical when I saw this recipe.  How could this possibly taste good and be so low in calories?  Well, I was wrong.  Granted, it’s not the best banana bread I’ve ever had.  You can definitely tell that it’s made with Splenda and it’s got a powerful sweetness to it, but if you’re alright with Splenda, you should be fine with this recipe.  It definitely hits the craving for banana bread and will go into the permanent recipe collection.  I doubled the recipe, but the recipe below is the original.
