Preheat Oven

Mash Bananas

Add Dry Ingredients

  • Add oat flour, protein powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Stir gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the texture soft and fluffy.

Add Mix-ins

  • Fold in walnuts and dark chocolate chips carefully. This adds crunch, sweetness, and extra flavor to your High Protein Banana Bread Recipe.

Fill Loaf Pan

  • Pour batter into prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula. This helps the bread bake evenly and look beautiful when finished.

Bake Banana Bread

  • Bake for 50 to 55 minutes until golden and set. Check with a toothpick in the center. It should come out clean when fully baked.

Cool and Serve

  • Let banana bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack. Slice and enjoy your warm, homemade high protein banana bread.
