Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 °F (175°C) and line a 8x4-inch loaf pan.

Step 2

Whisk together the dry ingredients. Add the flour, vegan protein powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon to a large mixing bowl. Whisk until everything is combined.

Step 3

Mash the bananas. Peel the bananas and mash them using a fork, or transfer them to a blender and blend until smooth. The first method will give you a texture with small chunks of bananas, while the blender method will yield a smoother, more uniform texture.

Step 4

Add the liquid ingredients. Next, add the mashed bananas, oil, almond milk, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients.

Step 5

Mix until combined. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, mix the liquid ingredients with the dry ingredients until combined. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Stir in your add-ins. At this point, feel free to customize the batter by incorporating chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruits.

Step 7

Transfer the batter. Transfer the banana bread batter to the prepared baking pan and spread it into an even layer. At this point, you can top it with chocolate chips or nuts.

Step 8

Bake. Finally, bake the banana bread for 45-50 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 9

You can keep this protein banana bread for up to 5 days at room temperature. Keep it covered with plastic wrap to maintain its moisture.
