I think you should seek a source of protein to complement that. Maybe some peanut butter on top of that bread, or cheese, or a hard boiled egg as a side?
Hi,unless the banana bread is made from oat flour and alternative ingredients (eg: flaxegg, coconut oil...)I dont think that its a good breakfast as it may contain alot of sugar and you my need to eat too much of it to be satisfied. I would recommend a fruit smoothie instead.
I am not 100% certain, but my thoughts are that this breakfast might have a lot of added sugar (if any is added to the applesauce and bread). I am also not certain how much protein the banana bread might have, but overall, this breakfast doesn’t sound to have much of protein. I have been trying new breakfast items and they really work for me - plain oatmeal (which reduces cholesterol) with cinnamon, and a smoothie with a variety of berries (for antioxidants), skim milk (for protein, calcium, and vitamin d), and 1 scoop of muscle milk protein (for added protein, vitamins and minerals). If I am still hungry, I may have toast (whole grain bread) with peanut butter and jam, or some plain yogurt.
Personally I think it’s a good breakfast. You can also find a low sugar banana bread recipe on youtube so that’s probably a better choice. I’m not sure about the apple sauce, because it can have a really big amount of sugar. But if you don’t care about the calories, than I think there’s no problem.
I never thought of eating either of these as breakfast, they could be good. But to me banana bread has always been a kind of desert because of how sweet it is
If your body craves this, eat it! I recommend listening to what it wants but also making sure you’re getting nutrition. Maybe try to add some protein, or have more protein next breakfast. Keep a variety! This sounds yummy!
It doesn’t have much protein and has lots of carbs and sugar so it will probably cause a slump later on. Not the best breakfast but I think better than nothing.
I haven’t tried the apple sauce. I would say you need anyway something to balance the sugar from the banana and the apple?
I wouldn’t add applesauce to your banana bread because it’s adding sugar to something already sweet but add something more healthy like an apple to your meal/breakfast
I don’t like to eat only fruit for breakfast. I love eggs, sandwiches, cornflakes, organce juice, and then maybe one banana or apple.
