👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Step 2: Mash the Bananas
In a large bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until smooth.

Add eggs, Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract to the mashed bananas. Mix well until combined.
Step 4: Add Dry Ingredients
Add oat flour, protein powder, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
Step 5: Combine the Batter
Mix everything together until you get a smooth batter. Do not overmix.
Step 6: Add Extras (Optional)
Fold in chocolate chips or chopped nuts for extra flavor and texture.
Step 7: Pour into the Pan
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
Step 8: Bake
Bake for 35–45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 9: Cool & Slice
Let the banana bread cool for about 10–15 minutes, then remove from the pan, slice, and enjoy.
💡 Tips
- Use very ripe bananas for natural sweetness.
- If the batter is too thick, add 1–2 tablespoons of milk.
- Store in an airtight container for 3–4 days.
