This is very similar to our XTR4 Banoffee and Walnut Bread but it has a higher protein content and uses our Express Whey.

It is called a loaf cake and can be used as part as a bulking programme or as a yummy snack when you're on a diet.

  10. Pour into the prepared loaf tin.  .
  11. Bake for approximately 30 minutes in the preheated oven or until a skewer comes out clean.
  12. Leave to cool and cut into slices. Eat as a snack with your favourite Boditronics protein shake or simply just with a cup of tea!.

Do Banana's and Walnuts go together?

Bananas and walnuts complement each other well due to the creamy sweetness of bananas balancing the rich, earthy crunch of walnuts. This combination provides a satisfying blend of flavors and textures, enhancing the enjoyment of dishes like banana bread or salads.
