Best Banana Protein Bread...EVER.

bcf7683

I finally have stumbled across a protein recipe that doesn't suck- I've made this twice this week already. I'm in loooove.
I found it on Bodybuilding.com and I added in a few things to spruce it up while not adding to the calories.

265g very ripe bananas- mashed well
2 scoops vanilla protein powder (I have/used cinnamon graham cracker, worked well)
2 egg whites
3 whole eggs (I used the 3 egg equivalent of egg beaters)
1/2c skim milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2c oats (it calls for rolled, but all I have is quick oats, still worked)
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp of baking powder

Preheat oven to 325. Whisk the eggs & milk in with the mashed bananas until combined well. Mix dry ingredients and whisk in with the banana mixture. Pour mixture (it'll be pretty runny) into sprayed loaf pan and bake 35-45 mins (until knife put in middle comes out clean).
It doesn't rise a ton like regular bread, it's pretty dense when it's all said & done. I didn't add any, but it would be good to sprinkle some walnuts or chocolate chips on top too!

It equaled out to 3 small bananas... they were about 6" each. I had 3 so I weighed them so I could enter the correct info on here. You could probably use a little more or a little less depending on what you have

I'm about to start stock piling bananas and freezing them all when they get super ripe so I can make this whenever I feel like it :bigsmile:

Well I mean if you want to eat the entire loaf in one sitting you'll get about 88g of protein.......

Do you grind the oats to make oat flour or just leave as is?

I dumped 'em in right out of the container.

this does seem awfully low.

however....there's no cauliflower listed in this recipe. well done OP!
if i swap out for my powder, this might just be good.

ETA: saw your reply to the protein concern....i guess that makes more sense now. what powder are you using and how much protein per scoop is it?

I guess that's not bad for 100 calories. Thanks for the recipe.
