Ingredients

  • 3 ripe bananas mashed – Spotty bananas = flavor champions
  • 2 eggs – Structure and protein boost
  • ¼ cup honey or maple syrup – Natural sweetness
  • ¼ cup melted coconut oil or olive oil – Moisture magic
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt – Creamy and protein-packed
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract – Always invited to the party
  • 1 cup oat flour – Or blended rolled oats
  • ½ cup vanilla protein powder – The muscle ingredient
  • 1 tsp baking powder – Fluff creator
  • ½ tsp baking soda – Backup fluffer
  • ½ tsp cinnamon – Cozy energy
  • ¼ tsp salt – Balance baby
  • Optional add-ins: chocolate chips nuts, blueberries

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Do this first. Cold ovens ruin baked goods and moods.
  • Line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Trust me. This saves emotional distress later.
  • Mash the bananas.
  • In a big bowl, mash until mostly smooth. Some lumps are fine. We’re baking, not doing science.
  • Add wet ingredients.
  • Mix in eggs, honey, oil, yogurt, and vanilla. Stir until smooth and glossy.
  • Mix dry ingredients.
  • In another bowl, combine oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Combine wet and dry.
  • Gently fold dry into wet. Do not overmix. Overmixing = dense loaf sadness.
  • Add extras.
  • Fold in chocolate chips or nuts if using. Live your best life.
  • Pour into pan.
  • Smooth the top and tap the pan lightly to release air bubbles.
  • Bake for 45–55 minutes.
  • Bake until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  • Cool before slicing.
  • Wait at least 20 minutes. Cutting early is self-sabotage.
