I’ve been wanting to make a protein banana bread for some time now, and now that it’s done, I’m far from disappointed. It was so damn good!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good part about recipe testing is that we now have enough healthy banana bread in the freezer for the next 6 months… and we’ll have to eat it in 3. #bloggerproblems<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why You’ll Absolutely Love this Protein Banana Bread Recipe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Very Moist and Flavorful. <\/strong>Making this recipe, I made damn sure that the bread would be moist on the inside and crispy on the outside, because that is what you want of a good banana bread recipe, right? It also has just the right amount of sweetness. Love it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. 100% Sugar-Free<\/strong>. I am using erythritol as a sweetener, sugar-free chocolate chips and the whey protein powder I am using (Vanilla Cr\u00e8me Prostar Whey)<\/a> is low-carb and low-fat. (Use this link for 15% off!) <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Protein-Packed.<\/strong> Each slice of this delicious flourless banana bread contains 12 grams of protein (if sliced in 8 equal parts, click on the number of servings in the recipe card to change the amount ).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Perfect Lunchbox Filler.<\/strong> This is a perfect recipe to include in your meal-prep routine. Wrap 1-2 slices in plastic (ideally separated by a piece of parchment paper) and place them in your lunchbox, you’ll thank me later.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Why is my Banana Bread Too Moist?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    There are a few reasons why this might happen, the most common reason being that the oven temperature was too high. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Why is that? Well, if you bake banana bread at too high of a temperature, the crust will be ready before the center, so you will either end up with mushy banana bread or a charred crust. 325f is ideal, don’t rush it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Another reason is simply that there are either too much liquid or too little dry ingredients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Follow the measurements very closely, this is very important, especially for a banana bread recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How do I Know When my Banana Bread is Done?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Start checking your banana bread at least 10 minutes before the end of the instructed baking time. Insert a toothpick or cake tester in the middle. When it comes out clean, it is ready. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Baking time will vary, so monitor your banana bread closely during the last 20 minutes if it is the first time making this particular recipe in your oven. Banana bread can be tricky, you don’t want to end up with charred crust and dry interior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How do You Keep Banana Bread Moist?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Wrap the banana bread slices in plastic wrap, individually or in stacks, then place them in a sealed container for up to 2 days on the counter, up to a week in the fridge and up to three (3) months in the freezer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If wrapping 2 or more slices together, it is best to place a piece of parchment paper in-between the slices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Is my Banana Bread Batter Supposed to be Thick?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    The batter should be thick enough that you need to use another spoon to scrape the batter off your mixing tool. Like a muffin recipe, you don’t want to over-mix your banana bread batter either. Small pockets of flour are ok. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Which Protein Powder did You Use for This Recipe?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    For this recipe, I used <\/a>Ultimate Nutrition’s Prostar Vanilla Cr\u00e8me Whey Protein Powder<\/a>. (Use this link for 15% off!) I like the product very much, it tastes great and is very low in carbs and fat (2g carbs & 1g fat per scoop).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
