No added sugar, no wheat/gluten if you're avoiding that, and a punch of extra protein.

Bread Ingredients

  • 1 cup oat flour (buy it pre-ground or grind some oats in a food processor)
  • 1 cup vanilla Metabolic Drive Protein
  • 3 mashed bananas
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened Greek yogurt
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsps baking Splenda or equivalent low-cal sweetener (optional)

Crumb Topping Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup oat flour
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 to 3 tbsps melted butter
  • 1/4 cup baking Splenda or equivalent low-cal sweetener

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. For the bread batter, mix up all the ingredients and add half of it to a loaf pan. Glass or foil will work.
  3. Separately, mix up the crumble ingredients. Add about half to the batter. (This will give you a little of that crumbly goodness to the center of the loaf.)
  4. Add the rest of the batter, then the rest of the crumble to the top.
  5. Bake for 45-50 minutes in the center rack. If the top gets a little too brown, top it with foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.

Options

Add a handful of chopped walnuts to the loaf batter. This recipe should work with chocolate MD Protein too.
