High Protein Banana Bread

I took my moms old family banana bread recipie and turned it into a very healthy sugar free high protein bread.
 
1 1/3 C. whole wheat flour
1 C. Splenda
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 egg whites
1 cup of mashed banana (best if really ripe)
1/5 cup water
1/4 cup apple unsweetened applesauce
3 scoops vanallia whey
1/4 cup raisins
 
 
1. preheat oven to 350
2. mix all ingreadients together mix really well untill no chunks of protein powder are in there. pour in a greased 8X4 in. pan.
3. bake for 50 to 55 min. or untill a tooth pick can be stabbed in middle loaf and comes out clean.
 
I really recomend this makes a great high protein snack any time of the day.

That sounds good. I think I'll make that later today.


Do you have the nutrional info?

Do you think it would be ok to leave out the Splenda? I don't like that stuff because it has chlorine in it.

you could probally leave out the splenda...are you one who doesnt mind consuming sugar if not then you could substitue 1/2 c - 1 c of sugar... .if you dont want sugar you could use aspertame sweetener I dont know if it has chlorine in it (just make SURE you dont put 1 C. in, use the chart on the side of the box) but if you wish not to use any sweetners try using 1.5 c. of mashed bannas instead...i cant guarntee how this will turn out I am assuming the texture shouldn't be to off. well you can try any of those ideas, now you got me thinking, next batch im gonna dick around to try to make a loaf with out splenda.
 
Oh and ill have the nutritional facts posted sometime tonight

Thanks Gibb.

I was just about to make this and I just discovered I only got 1 banana

I'll have to wait till I go to the store tomorrow.

I'm also gonna use chocolate protein powder cause I don't have vanilla. I remember my Mom had a recipt with chocolate chips in it. So the choco protein should be decent. I'll let ya know.

should rock, chocale chip banana bread is awesome!

ok heres the nut. facts per loaf its the best i can do I dont have the percents daily just the basics hopefully its enough you should be able to get an estimate off what one of your sized slices would contain as it can very dramatically.

Soon I will be altering the recipie to have more protein and no splenda mabey no sweetner at all well see!

How about a easier fast way: Bisqiuck mix , Raisins  Mash 2 bannana, 2 egg whites 1 whole egg, applesauce water  cook bake 25 minutes. Its the bomb baby !

Because Bisquick is white flour with no nutrition, than whole wheat flour.

I made it and it turned our great. I didn't have a loaf pan so I made them into 12 muffins.

Here is what I put in it.

1 1/3 c wheat flour
1 1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnimon
2 egg whites
1 cup mashed banana
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup mashed apple
3 scoops chocolate whey
28g(protein scooper) of wheat bran

Baked at 350 for 25 minutes.


I didn't have apple sauce so I mashed up a banana. I also didn't have raisins. After I made them, I found some almonds that I could put in. It will have to wait till next time.
I also added a scoop of wheat bran to boost the fiber.

It's funny cause this is almost like my pancake receipt.

Just made this recipe and it came out killer.  I made it like the original but replaced the whole wheat flour, baking soda, and baking powder with Aunt Jemima's buttermilk complete pancake mix.  This mix is geared towards low carb, high protein diets and packs 11 grams of protein a serving just itself.  I've been scoffing these down with a glass of milk each time for even more protein.  Thanks for the recipe.

I made this last night...except i added some mashed blackberries and added 1/2 cup honey instead of the splenda (didn't have any) and used  chocolate whey.  And wow, I must say it was good!  Thanks so much for this. :)

The unreal is more powerful than the real because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Only intangible ideas last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on

I didn't have any applesauce so I used the equivalent amount of mashed bananas as a substitute.  Also, I don't like splenda so I used regular sugar and they came out extremely dry.  It might be because I doubled the recipe to make more muffins and you just can't do that but I don't know, they just didn't come out right. 

Any thoughts?

sounds awesome, will try it sometime!

I tried your recipe this morning and it seemed like there was not enough moisture. Too much dry to wet ingredients. When I mixed it up I couldn't get all of the dry ingredients to mix with the wet. I'm not sure what happened. I followed the directions exactly. Any suggestions. Also, how big is your scoop for your protein powder. That is the only thing I can think of.

I tried adding more water but added too much and it ended up too wet to bake completely.

Any ideas? It tastes pretty good and smells awesome while baking.

In changing the Splenda to an aspartame product you will see a noticeable change in taste because Splenda can be used in baking/heating and aspartame products go through a chemical change when heat is added, making the sweet taste turn extremely bitter. 

It was really interesting to find this recipe this morning!  I modified a banana muffin recipe yesterday and went exploring this morning just to see how close I had come to something that someone else may have tried.  I was very pleased with myself!  I had gastric band surgery done and have to eat extremely high protein/low carb foods.  This was great because it filled the bill for both.  I used vanilla whey protein powder, unsweetened applesauce and five bananas.  I can't use "regular" types of milk; I can only use Hood which is a very low carb milk so that's what I used in the recipe.  They were good and I will try them again.

I changed the flour on this one and it worked out quite well. To increase the protein content I replaced the flour with half soy flour and half quinoa. Soy flour has the highest protein content of any flour (to the best of my knowledge) and although quinoa has a slightly lower protein content than soy, it is a 'complete protein'. A complete protein is one that contains all eight essential amino acids.

From what I have learned, applesause in a recipe replaces the oil in a normal recipe, so I'm not surprised yours came out dry without it.I wonder if some really healthy fat like 'flax seed oil' or something would work instead of apple sauce?
