How to make protein banana bread

Start by greasing a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan. I also like to line the bottom of the bread with parchment paper so the bread pops easily after baking.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, get out a large mixing bowl and mix all the ingredients together.

Mash the bananas in the bowl with a fork, add the remaining water and whisk to combine. You can add the dry ingredients directly to this bowl or pre-mix them in a separate bowl if desired.

Spread protein bread batter on prepared baking sheet. Place on center rack in oven and bake for 40 minutes.

Turn off the oven, but do not open the oven door. Leave the banana bread in the turned off oven for another 5 minutes.

After this, if the surface of the bread is golden brown but barely comes out when you insert a toothpick into the center, cover it with tin foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or as needed.

Allow the baked goods to cool completely, then circle the sides with a knife and flip onto a large serving plate.

Cover loosely with a cloth or paper towel and store on the counter or in the refrigerator overnight. The taste and texture will be 10 times better the next day after the excess moisture has been removed.

Serving and storing recipes

Protein Banana Bread is great on its own. Or top it with almond butter, peanut butter, vegan cream cheese, pumpkin butter, and homemade Nutella.

A slice of banana bread served with a tablespoon of peanut butter contains nearly 15 grams of protein. Talk about healthy snacks!

Due to perishable ingredients, we recommend refrigerating any leftovers after a day in a covered container.

Alternatively, slice leftover banana bread and freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Add a layer of parchment paper between each slice to prevent sticking. Thaw before serving.

Using Grams

If you want to make your protein quickbread using a food scale instead of the cup measurements below, measure out the following amounts.

180 grams of flour, 60 grams of protein powder, yogurt and pure maple syrup, 120 grams each of honey or agave, 60 grams of oil or water, 10 grams of pure vanilla extract, 360 grams of mashed bananas. About 3 bananas.

Also, don’t forget to add ingredients that aren’t measured in grams (baking powder, baking soda, salt, and optional cinnamon).
