Yield 1 servings

Ingredients
2 cup Whole wheat flour
2 tbsp Nonfat dry milk powder (or 2 T soy flour for milk free diets)
2 tbsp Lowfat soy flour
2 tsp Baking powder
1/2 tsp Baking soda
1/4 tsp Salt
1/3 cup Applesauce
2 Egg whites or 1/4 cup egg beaters [or egg sub. equiv]
2 small (7 3/4") very ripe bananas
1 8-ounce can crushed pineapple, juice packed
1/2 cup Chopped, pitted dried apricots
1/2 cup Golden raisins
Preparation
Spray loaf pan with Pam or ?. Open pineapple and drain off juice mix dry
ingredients together in large bowl. In blender, process together
applesauce, egg, bananas and pineapple add to dry mixture, add apricots and
raisins, beat just till well mixed. Turn into loaf pan, baked in preheated
350F oven for 60 minutes or until golden and tests done. Remove from pan
and rest on a board or rack on its side till completely cooled. Refrigerate
wrapped. Freezes well.

Now for the variables, I have made this with no apricots but with one fresh
apple, chopped ( not peeled). I have made this with and without raisins.
Less sweet but good both ways. I am eager to try it with fresh bluberries
in place of the apricots. I have also made it without the pineapple because
I forgot to buy some, instead I used 1 cup apple juice. If you don't have
the soy flour or the dry milk, just add the equivilent of flour or oat bran
or??
