INGREDIENTS:

✔️ 1/3c milk of choice
✔️ 1/3c oil (or melted butter)
✔️ 1/2c honey (or maple syrup)
✔️ 2 eggs
✔️ 3 large ripe bananas, mashed (equivalent to 1 cup)
✔️ 1 + 3/4c plain flour
✔️ 1/3c (30g) Banana WPI protein powder
✔️ 2 tbsp matcha powder
✔️ 1 tsp baking soda

Soft, sweet, and full of comfort—this banana loaf is a winner for arvo tea, lunchbox treats, or slow weekend brekkies. With golden white choc chips and that classic banana richness, it’s simple to make and even better to eat.

Method:

  1. Preheat your oven to 165°C (fan-forced) and line a loaf tin with baking paper.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, honey, eggs, mashed banana, and vanilla until smooth and well combined.

  3. In a separate bowl, mix the dry ingredients, then sift them into the wet mixture. Stir gently with a wooden spoon until just combined—don’t overmix.

  4. Fold in your add-ins (white choc chips, nuts, or extras of your choice). Pour the batter into the prepared tin and smooth the top.

  5. Slice a banana lengthwise and gently place it on top. Sprinkle over a few extra white choc chips for good measure.

  6. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden and a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Let it cool in the tin before slicing and serving.

Tip: Best enjoyed slightly warm with a cuppa. 🫖

FAQ about this recipe

How ripe should the bananas be?

The riper the better—look for bananas with brown spots. They’re naturally sweeter and give the loaf a rich, moist texture.

Can I freeze slices for later?

Absolutely. Slice the loaf, wrap pieces individually, and freeze for up to 3 months. Just reheat in the microwave or toaster when ready to enjoy.

What else can I add in?

White choc chips are a classic, but you can also mix in crushed walnuts, chopped dates, or even a scoop of Greek yoghurt for extra richness.
