Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup mashed banana (225g)
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup blanched almond flour (90g)
- 1/2 cup chocolate pea protein powder (52g)
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder (28g)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8" x 4" loaf pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients. This includes the mashed banana, eggs, water, tahini and vanilla.
- Add in the dry ingredients (almond flour, pea protein, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt) and whisk until well combined.
- Pour the batter into the lined loaf pan.
- Place the pan in your oven and bake at 350 degrees for 55-60 minutes.
- After baking, remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then transfer it to a wire cooling rack. Out of the oven, the bread will have a lovely domed shape, but it will flatten on top after cooling - a normal occurance for this loaf.
- Once cooled, cut the loaf into 10 equal slices and enjoy!
- Store leftovers in a sealed, airtight container in the fridge. Enjoy within 10 days.
