Ingredients
- 280 g ripe bananas (about 3 medium-large)
- 2 eggs
- 60 g chocolate whey protein*
- 20 g cocoa powder
- 100 g oat flour
- 30 g honey/maple syrup
- 30 g peanut butter
- 60 ml milk
- pinch salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- handful chocolate chips or mix ins optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Line a small loaf tin with baking paper or lightly grease it.
- Mash the bananas in a large bowl until smooth.
- Add the eggs to the bananas and mix until combined.
- Add the oat flour, whey protein, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix just until combined — do not overmix.
- Fold in the chocolate chips or other mix-ins.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf tin.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, depending on your oven and tin size. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with wet crumbs. It should be moist!
- Remove from the oven and let cool in the tin for 10–12 minutes, or enjoy HOT!
Notes
*Whey can make baking a bit drier—if your batter looks extremely thick, add a splash of milk (1–2 tbsp) to loosen it.
