Protein Banana Bread

Protein Banana Bread

 

Do you LOVE banana bread, but not the high carbs, high fat or sugar content?  Then this one’s for you!  This lower carb, low fat, naturally sweetened Protein Banana Bread is sure to satisfy that craving and please a Sunday morning crowd, minus the sugar crash.

Ingredients:

• 150 grams oat flour
• 50 grams of vanilla protein powder (I used Active Stacks vanilla-use code COCOABAR for 10% off)
• 220 grams ripe banana
• 80 grams of plain non-fat Greek or Dairy Free Yogurt (this one is my favorite!)
• 1 egg + 1 egg white (45 grams)
• 60 grams Iced Oatmeal Cookie spread
• 2 Tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 TB cinnamon
• Stevia to taste (*I did not use, but optional.)

To make:

Combine mashed banana and yogurt.  Add eggs, vanilla and the Iced Oatmeal Cookie Spread.  Mix well.  Add in the oat flour, protein powder, baking soda, sea salt and cinnamon and mix well until incorporated.  Pour into a parchment paper lined bread pan and bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes.  Let cool completely.
