Blueberry Banana Bread (Single Serve)

Whether you’re looking for the perfect way to start your day or just a post workout snack, this single serve blueberry banana bread is the perfect solution! The blueberry banana bread is baked quickly in the oven and only requires 30 minutes and your favorite protein powder for a healthy snack. Blueberries add a new dimension to this banana bread recipe and are perfect for spring.

Instead of buying a sugary post workout treat, why don’t you try the single serve banana bread instead? Packed with 20g of protein and no added sugar this is the perfect way to refuel after a workout or start your day with a healthy breakfast. Blueberries not your thing? You can always add some dark chocolate chips and make this a special treat.

If you’re anything like me you have about 100 banana bread recipe that you want to try, but I really think you should put this one at the top of your list. This banana bread is a low-fat, gluten-free vegan, and single serve to keep portions in check.

An added benefit is that because this is a single serve portion you can add whatever you’d like maybe add pecans to one and blueberries and blackberries in another; or you get really crazy and you add chocolate and strawberries instead of blueberries. Now you see why I love this recipe, it’s so versatile!

Growing up we always had banana bread, it was the treat that I think I cherished the most. Banana bread was one of my mom’s favorite ways to make us something sweet but not too overwhelming. I usually ate more than I probably should have. I’ve always had a little bit of a problem with portion control, so the single serve blueberry banana bread is my solution to over snacking!

Blueberry Banana Bread Spotlight

Don’t skip the protein! Protein is an essential part of your diet. It’s the building block of the human body! It helps in the building of everything from your blood to your organs to you hair!

Protein keeps you full longer. This is because protein it takes longer to digest. This also means it takes more calories to digest protein helping you burn calories while you eat – which means I can have seconds! Ok maybe not but you get the point! Don’t skip on the protein!

Blueberry Banana Bread Recipe Tips

This recipe can be mixed by hand in a big bowl with a large spoon and some elbow grease. The hardest part of this recipe is not eating the batter while you are mixing it up! Since these are vegan, you don’t have to worry about eating the dough!

So you don’t have to dirty two dishes, always make my flax egg in the large bowl then mix the rest of the ingredients. Make sure you let this sit for 5 minutes before adding the other ingredients though.

Glass ramekins are great – they are affordable and have so many uses. You can bake this single serve banana bread, or this single serve brownie in them. You can also store freshly cut veggies or berries, since they come with a very tight fitting lid!
