Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1 scoop Vanilla protein powder
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Almond milk (or any milk of choice)
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 0.25 cup Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, vanilla protein powder, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In another bowl, whisk together the almond milk, eggs, Greek yogurt, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and homogenous.
Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
If using, fold in the chopped walnuts or pecans until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread 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.
Slice and serve the cinnamon bread warm or at room temperature. Enjoy as a high-protein breakfast or snack.
