Protein-Packed Banana Bread

Protein-Packed Banana Bread

In celebration of World Baking Day we took to the kitchen to deliver a protein packed banana bread. What’s better than the sweet, comforting scent of freshly baked banana bread wafting through the house? Mmmmm...not much! We thought we’d jump on the baking bandwagon and put our own twist on the traditional with a healthy, protein-packed alternative. This recipe is super tasty and everyone can enjoy a slice!

So grab your apron and slip on your oven mitts, because this is one healthy treat you won’t be able to resist!

Pro Tip: Don’t be alarmed if your banana bread is slightly yellow in colour. This is simply due to the Curcumin in Reload, which provides you with fantastic anti-inflammatory benefits!
