No jokes, I had been wanting to make an individual banana bread for the longest time, but for some reason or the other it never happened. This time I literally brought one banana just for this recipe, and stuck to it. 

Super glad this happened though coz no jokes, this solo protein banana bread turned out amazing! And super easy to make as well.

Ingredients for Single Serve Protein Banana Bread:

This single serving protein banana bread recipe is a delicious and healthy dessert that is perfect for anyone looking for a low-fat and high-protein treat. It is made with healthy ingredients and has no eggs or butter!

• Mashed Banana from completely ripe and browned bananas
• Vanilla Protein Powder; This is the source of protein and sweetness in the protein powder banana bread since there’s no added sugar in this recipe. I used whey-casein Quest Vanilla since it bakes well.
• Peanut Butter Powder, also known as Powdered Peanut Butter. I recommend Lakanto for a sugar free version (the code HAYLSKITCHEN gives you a discount). Or you could use the one from PbFit too.
• Whole wheat pastry flour which gives it the light texture, bit still keeps it healthy
• Almond Milk or regular milk
• Cinnamon
• Baking Powder

And for the fancyness:

• Chopped Walnuts or Chocolate Chips

How to store Protein Banana Bread for One?

You just did the hard part of making this perfect protein banana bread for one

Refrigeration is Key: Once your single-serve protein banana bread has cooled to room temperature, it’s crucial to store it in the refrigerator. The cool temperature will help maintain the creamy consistency and preserve the flavors.

Cover and Seal: To prevent your one serving protein banana bread from absorbing any unwanted odors or flavors from the fridge, cover it tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Make sure to seal the edges well to create a protective barrier.

Consume Within 5 Days: While this individual protein banana bread can last for several days in the refrigerator, consume within 5 days.

Freezing Option: If you want to extend the lifespan of your protein banana bread for one, consider freezing it. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then place it in a freezer-safe container. Be sure to label it with the date for easy reference.
