Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Lightly spray a 9x5 inch loaf pan with olive oil cooking spray and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whey protein powder, rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened apple sauce, Greek yogurt, eggs, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring well until combined.
Fold in the diced apple and chopped walnuts, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
Bake for 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve, storing any leftovers in an airtight container.
