I love this bread – so simple to throw together and a great way to use up very ripe bananas. I will often purchase a load of really ripe bananas if they are in the sale just to make this loaf. Instead of raisins you could add a handful of chopped nuts or seeds. I often add a scoop of plain or vanilla protein powder to the mix as well to make this a really satisfying breakfast option. Ideal as a post workout snack or tea time treat for the boys after school.

A naturally sweet bread high in protein thanks to the addition of eggs and protein powder. Bananas are a great source of energising B vitamins and potassium which may help relieve muscle cramps especially after exercise
If you need to avoid eggs in this recipe try soaking 1tbsp chia seed or flaxseed in 2tbsp water for 10 minutes before adding to the processor. Pysllium husks can also be used in the same way.
30g vanilla protein powder or dessicated coconut
