Protein Banana Bread (GF)

  • 1 cup whole-milk plain Greek yogurt

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a mini loaf pan or standard 9×5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.

  • In a large bowl, stir together the yogurt, banana, maple syrup, peanut butter, eggs, and vanilla.

  • Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

  • Gently stir the yogurt mixture into the flour mixture.

  • Pour batter into the prepared pan. (Carrie Says Use a regular bread pan and make 1.5 loaves)

  • Bake for 26-28 minutes if using a mini loaf pan or until the edges are lightly golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool for 5 minutes in the pan, then remove from pan and cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

  • To make in a standard 9×5-inch baking loaf pan, reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and bake for 55-60 minutes. Towards the end of baking, if the bread is browning a lot on top, cover with foil and continue baking.
