Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cups whole wheat pastry flour* see notes
  • ¼ cup vanilla protein powder* I used this see notes
  • 2 tablespoons tapioca flour see here
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 teaspoons stevia* or additional brown sugar, see notes
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 3 bananas crushed
  • ¼ cup brown sugar*
  • ⅓ cup soy yogurt or other non-dairy yogurt
  • ¼ cup coconut oil melted

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350° and grease a 9" x 5" loaf pan.
  • In a large bowl, combine the flour, protein powder, tapioca starch, baking powder, baking soda, stevia, and salt.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, use a fork to crush bananas together with the brown sugar.
  • Add the melted coconut oil and soy yogurt to the banana mixture.
  • Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and stir together until evenly combined.
  • Pour into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 45-50 minutes or until set. The bread is set if a toothpick comes out (mostly) clean when inserted in the center.
  • Allow the bread to cool for 10 minutes in the pan before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  1. Whole Wheat Pastry Flour: If you do not have whole wheat pastry flour, your best bet is to substitute a 50/50 ratio of all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour. Or you can use all-purpose flour. 
  2. Vanilla Protein Powder: I used Tropeaka Lean Protein Powder in vanilla. But any vanilla protein powder will work.
  3. Brown Sugar: Feel free to substitute regular white granulated sugar or coconut sugar.
  4. Stevia: If you choose to omit the stevia, you'll need to add additional brown sugar. An extra ¼ cup- ½ cup, depending on your preference. 
  5. Add-Ins: Feel free to add up to one cup of your favorite chocolate chips or nuts. 
  6. Storage: Cover and store banana bread at room temperature for two days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
