Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1 cup Wheat bran
- 1 cup Protein powder (unflavored or vanilla)
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 Eggs
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 0.5 cup Milk or almond milk
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons Sunflower seeds
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, wheat bran, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, combine Greek yogurt, eggs, honey, and milk. Whisk until smooth and well blended.
Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the chia seeds and sunflower seeds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Place the loaf in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Enjoy your homemade high protein bran bread plain, or top with your favorite spreads or slices of fruit for added flavor and nutrition.
