Banana Protein Choc. Chip Bread/Muffins - Low Carb (3.6 NET carbs per serving) Great for pre-workout instructions
- Mix dry ingredients together. Then add liquid ingredients. If you like, add 1 banana (24 net carbs.) I sometimes add half or remove it from the recipe if I want to lower the carb intake. I love bananas and consider them “good” carbs. The banana emulsion does a great job of giving these muffins a nice banana flavor..
- Mix together with electric beater or mixer. Bake at 375 for 30 min. Each oven is different. Check with a toothpick after 20 min.. Be sure to refrigerate after a day after you make these. The protein makes them smell a little weird if you don't and they will stay fresh longer..
- You can play with the ingredients a bit and lower the net carb intake even more. Trial and error. Because these are loaded with protein, they are a great on-the-go breakfast snack. They make great muffins, too. I have made them both ways. The mini silicone bread pans work the best for me! I place them on top of a cookie sheet then bake. The bread comes right out with no issue..
