I love this healthier version of the classic banana bread but with some added protein!

Tips

• Cover pan with foil when baking for the last 10-15 minutes so the bread doesn’t become too dark on the top
• Do not over mix the batter or the texture will be off
• Use dark brown bananas for the sweetest flavor

Ingredients

3 large, overripe bananas, mashed

½ cup honey, maple syrup, or cane sugar

2 tsp vanilla

2 eggs

⅓ cup plain greek yogurt

1 stick butter, melted

⅓ cup collagen peptides or protein powder

2 tsp baking soda

½ tsp salt

1 ½ cups all purpose flour

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Combine bananas, honey, vanilla, eggs, and yogurt in a mixing bowl and mix well. Add melted butter. In a separate bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, salt, and collagen peptides. Slowly add dry mixture to the wet mixture until just fully combined.

Grease bread pan. I like to use mini loaf pans for this! Fill pans ½- ⅔ full.

Bake for 30-35 min for mini loaves (makes 4) or about 1hr for a regular sized loaf pan. Make sure a toothpick comes out clean before removing from oven.

I recommend cooling the pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
