This moist protein banana bread is soft, fluffy, and full of flavor — all made in one bowl with no blender required! Packed with natural sweetness from ripe bananas and a protein boost from whey or plant-based powder, it’s a healthy, fuss-free bake perfect for breakfasts, snacks, or post-workout fuel.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 3 medium ripe bananas (mashed)

  • 2 large eggs

  • ¾ cup vanilla protein powder (whey or plant-based)

  • ¾ cup oat flour

  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt

  • 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup

  • 1 tsp baking soda

  • ½ tsp baking powder

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • Pinch of salt

  • Optional: ¼ cup chopped walnuts or dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a standard 8×4-inch loaf pan with parchment paper.

  • Mash bananas in a large mixing bowl until mostly smooth.

  • Add wet ingredients — eggs, Greek yogurt, and honey. Whisk until well combined.

  • Fold in dry ingredients — protein powder, oat flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Stir gently until just combined (don’t overmix).

  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

  • Bake for 40–50 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.

  • Cool the loaf in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Texture Tip: Don’t overmix the batter — it keeps the bread soft and fluffy.

  • Protein Tip: Use a whey or pea-based blend (not pure collagen). It gives the best rise and flavor.

  • Sweetness: Adjust honey to taste based on how ripe your bananas are.

  • Storage: Keep at room temp for up to 3 days or refrigerate up to 7 days. Freeze slices individually for up to 2 months.

  • Serving Idea: Toast a slice and top with almond butter or Greek yogurt for a balanced snack.
