Best-Ever Dairy-Free Protein Banana Bread

This recipe was passed down to me from my Gran and I have adapted it over the years to include protein as I’ve looked for more ways to add more protein to my diet. It’s always a hit and I sometimes double the recipe to make two loaves (and then freeze one). I love making this when I’ve got bananas that are just starting to turn.

Prep time: 15 mins | Bake time: 45-50 mins
