Hi Pro High Protein Banana Bread
Getting enough protein is something I’m passionate about, which is why I wrote the post how to increase protein intake, how to use protein powder 3 ways AND Mr. FFF and I did a protein bar review. But, I figured you might want an even easier way to get protein which is why this protein powder banana bread is HERE FOR YOU.
When I tested this recipe, I used whey-based protein powder as I do not have a dairy allergy and this is my preferred protein. Make sure to use grass-fed dairy whey protein powder if you want to make this banana bread paleo friendly!
I am sure you could also use a plant-based protein powder IF you are accustomed to the earthy taste of it. I personally am not, so it’s not something I would recommend. But, if you are, give it a shot and let me know how it goes!
