Banana Bread with Benefits…

Ingredients

  • 6 ripe bananas

  • 4 eggs

  • 1/2 cup maple syrup or honey

  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt

  • 1/3 cup melted butter or coconut oil

  • 2 tsp vanilla

Dry

  • 2 cups oat flour

  • 1 cup almond flour

  • 2/3 cup vanilla protein powder

  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseed

  • 1/4 cup hemp seeds

  • 2 tsp cinnamon

  • 2 tsp baking soda

  • 1 tsp salt

Optional:

  • 1 cup chocolate chips

  • walnuts

  • chia/hemp topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

  2. Mash bananas.

  3. Mix in eggs, syrup, yogurt, and vanilla.

  4. Stir in dry ingredients until just combined.

  5. Pour into a greased 9x16 pan. I actually prefer parchment paper to oil!

  6. Bake 35–45 minutes until the center is set, and the toothpick comes out mostly clean. If your bread is browning fast at the 20-30 min mark, cover with foil!

• 7. Cool before slicing -if you can wait!! I never can.

I slice down the middle of the 9×16 and can get 22 slices.
