Ingredients

1 cup almond flour (. I used the Organic Fine Almond Flour by Prozis. Code KATIE10 for 10% off!)
45 g vanilla protein powder (My personal favorite is the natural vanilla whey isolate by the brand Prozis. You can actually use the code “KATIE10″ for 10% off at Prozis!)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1 egg (large)
2 bananas (ripe, mashed)
2/3 cup peanut butter (creamy, I used the Caramel Peanut Butter by Prozis)
1/4 cup sugar free maple syrup (My favorite is by Lakanto)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

1
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line an 8x8 inch glass baking dish with parchment paper.
2
In a large bowl, mash the bananas. Add in the egg, syrup, peanut butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until creamy and there are very little to no lumps.
3
Add in the almond flour, salt, protein powder, and baking soda.
4
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 25 minutes or until set but still slightly gooey in the center (Leave it a little gooey because it will set in a lot, I promise. Let cool completely before slicing. Enjoy!
