One Banana? No Eggs? No Problem!

Sometimes I wanna bake but my pantry says "nope". 
Yesterday I saw one banana in my kitchen and thought "so what, I can just make a smaller banana bread!"
Then, as a started to create my recipe, I turned to grab an egg.....dun dun Dunn...
No eggs. Oops! Then I thought "well what about all the people with egg allergies? What do they get to enjoy?"
This recipe is for them and anyone else who only has one banana and wants banana bread Dang it!
Preheat 350
Spray bread pan with veg oil

In a large bowl, add
One large very ripe banana
1 c brown sugar
1 stick of butter or marg softened ( 1/2c)
1 tbsp vanilla extract
Blend with hand mixer

Now.. To replace the egg:
Mix 1/4 c of applesauce 
(whatever you have on hand. I happened to have sauce I made from last weeks apple picking)
 with
1 tsp baking powder 
Add to banana mixture 

Next.. Do not over mix but add until wet and not lumpy or you'll have a heavy bread:
1/2 c milk
1.5 c flour 
1-2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp cinnamon 
Dash of nutmeg
Dash of clove
Dash of salt

Pour into pan
Bake for 55 min or until toothpick comes out clean. Let cool for 10 min before cutting.
This was a shot in the dark but my husband and daughter said it was delicious!
It was very moist and very easy and yes, even with only ONE banana.... Taste plenty of banana!
