Equipment

  • Tin Foil
  • Baking paper
  • Oven
  • Electric Whisk
  • Mixing Bowls
  • Loaf Pan

Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 Ripe Mashed Banana
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 60 ml Milk
  • 60 ml Fat Free Greek Yoghurt
  • 60 ml Sugar Free Maple Syrup

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 scoops Vanilla Protein Powder
  • 80 g Blended Oat Flour
  • 1 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 2 tsp Sweetener
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 50 g Chocolate Chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a loaf tin with baking paper, or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
  • Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, mix the protein powder, oat flour, ground cinnamon, sweetener, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mash the bananas until smooth. Add the eggs, milk, Greek yoghurt, vanilla extract, and sugar-free maple syrup. Whisk until well combined.
  • Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and fold in most of the chocolate chips, saving some for the topping.
  • Pour into the Tin: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top.
  • Bake: Cover the top of the tin loosely with tin foil to prevent over-browning. Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Cool: Remove from the oven and allow the banana bread to cool in the tin for 10 minutes.
  • Serve: Slice into 8-10 pieces and enjoy as a protein-packed snack or dessert.

Notes

Meal Prep Tip:

This banana bread stores well! Wrap slices individually in cling film or foil and store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for up to a month. Simply reheat in the microwave for a warm, fresh-tasting slice.
