 The Banana Bread of Kings
 
 OK.  Here it is.  The one you've all been waiting for. :)
 I should mention that I asked a friend, a banana-bread connoisseur of
 sorts, to try it. She agreed that it was very good.  But she said that it
 was a little heavier than normal b.b.  So there you have it.  And here it is.
 
 1 cup ready-to-eat bran cereal (I used Total - .5 g fat in 1 cup)
 1 cup mashed ripe banana (2 ro 3)
 3 tablespoons applesauce (replacing shortening)
 1/2 cup sugar
 1/4 cup + 2 tbs boiling water
 1 1/2 cups sifted flour
 2 tsp baking soda
 1/2 tsp salt
 
 Measure bran, banana, applesauce and sugar in a large bowl.  Add the water
 and stir. 
 
 In another bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and salt (or don't sift
 it -- stirring it well with a fork works also).  Add this to the banana
 mixture, stirring only until combined.
 
 Pour into bread pan and stick in the oven.
 
 Bake at 350 for about 45 min.
