High Protein Banana Bread

From Pam Walker, NOW Brand Manager for Puresource

Here is a great recipe for the sports-minded! What I like about this recipe is that it is all natural, no artificial sweeteners and no oil. It tastes just like regular banana bread and takes only minutes to prepare! I make 2 in the evening and then bring one to work for my mid-morning snack the next day. I love warm banana bread, so I just heat in the microwave for a few seconds and it’s delicious! Enjoy!!

This recipe makes 2 servings, so half of the batter is a meal. Each serving has 38 g Carbs and 25 g Protein!
