Cook Time 40 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes
Yield 10 - 12 slices

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cup white, spelt, or oat flour (or try this Almond Flour Banana Bread)
  • 1/2 cup protein powder (60g)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cup mashed overripe banana
  • 1/2 cup yogurt or additional banana
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup, honey, or agave
  • 1/3 cup oil or water
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • optional chocolate chips, walnuts, coconut, etc.

Instructions

  • Grease a 9x5 loaf pan, and line the bottom with parchment paper. Preheat the oven to 350 F. Stir all ingredients together, smooth the batter into the pan, and bake 40 minutes. Turn the oven off, but do not open the door even a crack. Leave the protein banana bread in the closed oven for an additional five minutes. Mine is always done after this time. If yours is still soft in the center for some reason (climate, uncalibrated oven, etc.), cover the top with tin foil and continue baking until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean. Let cool, then go around the sides with a knife and invert onto a plate. If you can wait, the taste and texture are even better the next day!
