Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup protein powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking.
  2. Mash the bananas: In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until they are smooth and free of lumps, creating a moist base for your batter.
  3. Add wet and dry ingredients: Add the eggs, almond flour, protein powder, maple syrup, baking soda, salt, and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas.
  4. Mix the batter: Stir all the ingredients together thoroughly until you achieve a well-combined batter with even consistency.
  5. Prepare the pan: Grease a loaf pan to prevent sticking and pour the batter into it, spreading it out evenly.
  6. Bake the bread: Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, indicating the bread is cooked through.
  7. Cool and serve: Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan before slicing to ensure clean cuts and better texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute the protein powder with your preferred type, such as whey, plant-based, or collagen.
  • If you want a sweeter bread, you can increase maple syrup slightly, but be mindful of added sugars.
  • Make sure to use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and moisture.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • Optional add-ins include chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or cinnamon for extra flavor and texture.
