Notes
- Use ripe bananas for the best flavor.
- Use nut butter made from only nuts and salt. Any added sugars or oils will change the texture.
- I recommend using a protein powder you enjoy the flavor of. I used Nuzest vanilla protein powder.
- Bread is done baking when a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool before slicing into.
- Store bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Freeze for up to 1 month.
