Banana Bread (Chocolate Banana Bread) Protein Muffins


Ingredients (indicates the alternative Chocolate Banana Bread ingredients)

3/4 cup Ripe banana (about 1 large banana, otherwise pumpkin pure, sweet potato baby food, or applesauce work just as well)
3/4 cup Egg whites
1/2 cup Plain low fat greek yogurt
3/4 cup Oats (use gluten free if sensitive to gluten)
2 scoops Vanilla protein powder (Chocolate Protein Powder)
12-14 packets Stevia (or 1/2 cup sweetener of choice)
1 tsp Baking powder
1 tsp Baking soda
1/2 tsp Cinnamon (1 Tbsp. cocoa powder)


1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray, or line with silicone or foil liners, (spray liners if using).

2. Place all of the ingredients in a blender, (or food processor), and blend until mixture is smooth.



3. Divide mixture evenly between 12 muffin tins.


4. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.

(Note: be sure to use either silicone or foil liners with the paper insert removed because they will stick, as does any muffin made with oats rather than flour!)
