Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup oat flour 120g
  • 1 coop vanilla protein powder or snickerdoodle protein powder, 31g
  • 1 cup granular sweetener I used Swerve
  • 1 Tbsp cinnamon 15g
  • 2 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp ground allspice
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 egg large
  • 1/4 cup egg white, 60g
  • 1/2 cup canned pumpkin 122g
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups zucchini loosely packed, grated, 175g

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a bread pan with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium sized bowl, combine the flour, protein powder, sweetener, spices, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Stir until combined.
  3. In a larger bowl, add the egg and beat with a hand mixer (or whisk) for 30 seconds. Add the egg whites, pumpkin and vanilla and beat again until combined.
  4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix well. Then add the zucchini and mix again until all ingredients are mixed thoroughly.
  5. Pour the batter into the spray bread pan and bake for 40-45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. When done, remove bread from pan and let cool on cooling rack (we don't want it to keep baking in the pan). Once cool, slice and enjoy!

Notes

  • Sweetener
  • Baking times
  • To store: While you can keep this at room temperature for 3-4 days, I would highly suggest keeping this bread stored in airtight container in the fridge. It will stay fresher, last longer, and in my opinion - it tastes best cold!
  • Granulated sucralose (Splenda) can be subbed in equal amounts for granulated erythritol, Swerve, or sugar. If subbing for granulated stevia, use half the amount. If subbing for liquid stevia, use 2 tsp (10 mL).
  • Baking time will vary depending on the size of baking dish you use. When I made this recipe into 12 muffins instead, it took 20 minutes.
