BANANA 🍌 BLUEBERRY 🫐 PROTEIN 🍞 BREAD….
This is so easy to make - most of the work’s done in your blender. Super healthy full of fibre, protein & healthy fats to keep you feeling fuller for longer. We love this for breakie & I know I’ve given my kids a good start to the school day with v little refined sugar ✔️
🧠 I pull this out when school exams are lurking, as research suggests the frozen blueberries can help with memory & focus 💫
💙
Ingredients:
1.5 cups oats (gf optional & blended) - you could use regular plain flour, but I prefer this for extra fibre
2 tbsp seeds - eg. chia or flax
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp nuts of your choice
4 eggs
3 ripe banana
6 dates (a few more if desired for sweetness)
1 cup blueberries - I prefer frozen
100g cottage cheese (Extra points & when this is blended you can’t taste it at all)
Pinch sea salt
Recipe:
1. Heat oven to 180 degrees. Line a loaf tin with banking paper & prepare some muffin cases for any leftover mixture.
2. Put the oats & chia seeds in a blender & whizz until you have a fine powder. This is your ‘flour’. Then add in the baking powder, cinnamon, salt. Pour mixture out of the blender & Set aside.
3. Then add in the other wet ingredients to the blender eg. Banana, dates, eggs, cottage cheese plus your nuts & whizz it up. When smooth, add in the dry ingredients & whizz up in the blender for a few mins until well mixed.
4. Pour into your loaf tin & then add your blueberries, pushing some down through the mixture.
5. Bake for 30-35 mins until golden & a skewer comes out clean.
Voila & enjoy! It’s so moist & delicious. 💙 Best served warm with some butter or nut butter. Keep in air tight container & eat within 3 days.
