1/2 cup (45 g) unflavored protein powder

2 cups (450 g) non-fat Greek yogurt
→ Assembling
07 -
2 tbsp (30 ml) almond milk
08 -
3 tbsp (18 g) zero-calorie 1:1 sugar replacement
09 -
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
10 -
Optional: 2 tbsp (28 g) chopped pecans
# Steps:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly butter a loaf pan.
02 -
Spread chopped pecans evenly over the bottom of the loaf pan, if using.
03 -
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, vanilla protein powder, unflavored protein powder, baking powder, and baking soda.
04 -
Add the Greek yogurt to the dry mixture and mix gently until large shaggy dough clumps form, ensuring not to over-mix.
05 -
Lightly wet your palms and divide the dough into 25 portions, approximately 2 tablespoons each. Roll each portion into a ball, wetting your palms as needed to prevent sticking.
06 -
Pour almond milk into a small bowl. In another small shallow bowl, mix the sugar replacement and cinnamon. Dip each dough ball into the almond milk, then roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
07 -
Place the coated dough balls into the loaf pan, stacking them loosely. Repeat until all balls are coated and arranged.
08 -
Bake uncovered for 20 minutes.
09 -
Cover the loaf pan with foil and continue baking for 10–15 minutes (total baking time of 35–40 minutes) until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
10 -
Let the bread cool slightly before serving. Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
# Notes:
01 -
Swap almond milk for any milk alternative if preferred.
02 -
Add a light glaze made from protein powder and water for extra sweetness without added sugar.
