Ingredients: 1 cup Banana (1 cup mashed banana make sure bananas are overripe for sweetness (I also use a heaping cup- about 3 bananas)); 2 pieces Egg (2 eggs room temperature); ½ cup Coconut Sugar (1/2 cup coconut sugar can also use brown sugar or maple sugar); ½ cup Whole Milk (1/2 cup Fairlife 2% milk you can also go with whole milk here. Fairlife milk is higher in protein for an added boost); ⅓ cup Avocado Oil (1/3 cup avocado oil); 20 g Collagen Peptides (20 g collagen peptides Optional but adds a bit more protein without compromising texture) — optional; 1 tsp Cinnamon (1 tsp cinnamon); 1 tsp Vanilla (1 tsp vanilla extract); 2 cup Buttermilk Flapjack Mix (2 cups Kodiak Cakes Buttermilk pancake mix); 1 cup Walnuts (1 cup walnuts divided)

Steps

1Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2Spray a standard 8.5" loaf pan with avocado oil spray and line the bottom with parchment paper. *see notes for using different types of loaf pans.
3In a large bowl or stand mixer, whisk together the banana, eggs, coconut sugar, milk, oil, collagen powder, vanilla, and cinnamon until smooth.
4Gently stir in the protein pancake mix and 3/4 cup walnuts until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
5Pour the bread batter into the loaf pan and bake for 40-50 minutes (your oven temp and the type of pan you use can affect baking time). Bread is done when nice and golden on top and a toothpick or cake tester comes out clean. Optional: you can butter the top when it's warm out of the oven (my mom always did this) if you like a moist top.
6I love to serve this bread with an olive oil butter blend spread and a drizzle of honey. Delicious.
