2 large egg whites
1 tbsp ground flaxseed (soaking in 3 tbsp water for a few minutes)

1
Preheat oven to 350

Mix first 5 ingredients in a large bowl. Using a mixer, beat at a medium speed.
3
Mix bananas, oats, and milk seperately. Then add to sugar mixture. Beat well.
4
Combine flours, bran, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Add to sugar mixture and stir until just combined. Fold in Strawberries and Carob chips.
5
Coat a 9X 5 loaf pan with cooking spray and spoon batter into it. Bake at 350 for an hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean (with the exception of melted chocolate on in). Cool in pan for 30 minutes and then let cool completely on wire rack.

Cooks note: I mash 3 bananas and cut up the fourth, so there are small pieces of banana in the bread.
