Healthier Banana Bread Lower Fat, Flax

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I was suspicious with 4 cups of flour PLUS 1 1/2 cups flax? Didn't think there was nearly enough moist ingredients to balance it out. Dense is an understatement! Even after adding an extra egg and more oil, it still came out HARD. I did salvage it by making it into french toast which was quite good. I will tweek this recipe as I appreciate the effort to up the healthy factor, starting with specifying banana size. I had 3 very large bananas so thought that would suffice. I'd also eliminate a cup of flour and add an extra 1/2 of walnuts as it seemed there were very few for 2 loaves.
