1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

4 tablespoons apple purée or sauce

1. Preheat oven to 180 C / Gas mark 4. Lightly grease a 20x10cm (8x4 in) loaf tin.
2. In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and cinnamon. Add egg whites, bananas and apple purée; stir just until combined. Pour batter into prepared tin.  (You could also add nuts and/or sultanas at this point too if you where feeling adventurous)
