This recipe is a MUST make for everyone who likes banana bread. It’s the kind of banana bread that no one can tell contains protein and lacks sugar, white flour, and butter. It feels and tastes like regular banana bread! But unlike regular banana bread, this beauty is extremely nutritious. We’ve been devouring it over here! It’s just really good banana bread, 100% family friendly and perfect for anyone who likes good ol’ fashioned banana bread.
Ingredients
1 and 1/8 cup gluten-free oat flour
3/4 cup whey protein powder (Whey Protein 360, Whey Protein 360 Extreme or Upgrade Multi-Protein would all be perfect here)
1/2 to 3/4 cup coconut flour
1/3 cup coconut oil
2 eggs
2.5 medium ripe bananas
1/4 almond milk
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup date syrup
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon Madagascan vanilla extract (optional)
1/2 teaspoon ground sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup roughly chopped pistachio nuts
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 160 C (320 F).
2. Blend all ingredients together.
3. Bake in a bread pan (ideally a silicone one) until your knife comes out clean (around 40-45 minutes, usually no more than that).
4. Enjoy or set to cool, wrap in foil and store it in the fridge. Consider topping it with peanut butter and/or enjoying alongside a glass of milk or, to up your protein intake even further, a delicious protein shake.

I’ve looked up 3 recipes so far and all three had mistakes on the macros similar to this above “Macros per slice (out of 12): 199kcals, 23.8kcals (out of which 4.7g is fiber!), 8.7g protein, 8.5g fat.” where I assume you mean 23.8 carbs? On another of your choc protein bar recipes you listed the fiber content as a component of protein. These aren’t huge criticisms but something you might want to clean up just for accuracy especially for those who may not know any better. Excited to try some of your recipes though!
