I made this Banana Loaf for the first time today and it's delicious. No protein powder in this recipe like with a lot of my baking but it still has protein, low sugar, a good amount of fiber and a calorie count we can all afford!

| The ingredients |
Ingredients
Wet:
3 egg whites (I used actual egg whites, not the jug kind)
3 ripe bananas, mashed
1/2 cup applesauce (I used one of the individual sized sugar-free cups)
12 packets Stevia (or 1/2c Splenda)(You cold use honey or agave but it would change the nutrition)
Dry:
2 cups oat flour (I use Bob's Red Mill, I have a ton of stuff I bake with from this brand)
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees
- In a medium bowl, beat the egg whites and add the remaining wet ingredients - mix thoroughly
- In another bowl mix all of the dry ingredients
- Lightly blend all of the ingredients together and pour the mixture into a loaf pan
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out dry (mine took 45 minutes in my new oven!)
- Let the loaf stand in the pan for 10 minutes, then slice into 8 thick slices and serve

I def want to try this!! Also, have you ever tried making your own oat flour?? I do all of the time when I make the carrot cake protein bars and they turn out great! I just put a little more than I need in my blender (magic bullet) and then I blend until its a flour consistancy. I am not sure if it makes a big difference if its made or store bought? I should make larger batches of oat flour since I use it weekly!
