Ingredients:
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup protein powder (unflavored or flavored based on preference)
Optional Add-ins:
- Pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder (for extra fluffiness)
- Sweetener or herbs for flavor variations
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- Separate the eggs: Place the yolks in one bowl and the whites in another. Beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This will give the bread a fluffy texture.
- Mix the yolks and protein powder: In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth. Gradually add the protein powder, mixing until you get a thick batter.
- Fold in the egg whites: Gently fold the beaten egg whites into the yolk-protein mixture. Take care not to overmix to keep the batter airy.
- Pour into the loaf pan: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and firm to the touch.
- Cool and serve: Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Slice and enjoy!
Tips:
- For a savory twist, add herbs like rosemary or garlic powder to the batter.
- For a sweeter version, mix in vanilla protein powder and a pinch of cinnamon.
