Instructions:

1. Preheat oven: Set your oven to 180°C (356°F) and prepare a banana bread pan by greasing it or lining it with baking paper.
2. Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, carefully mash the bananas. Add the eggs, avocado oil, Greek yogurt and mix well. Stir in the protein powder, raw honey, both flours, sweetener, salt, baking soda, baking powder and optionally the cinnamon and vanilla. Mix until everything is well combined.
