Ingredients

  • 2 cups Whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup Wheat bran
  • 1 cup Protein powder (unflavored or vanilla)
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 Eggs
  • 0.25 cup Honey
  • 0.5 cup Milk or almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
  • 2 tablespoons Sunflower seeds

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, wheat bran, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

In another bowl, combine Greek yogurt, eggs, honey, and milk. Whisk until smooth and well blended.

Step 4

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients. Stir just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the chia seeds and sunflower seeds, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Place the loaf in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 9

Enjoy your homemade high protein bran bread plain, or top with your favorite spreads or slices of fruit for added flavor and nutrition.
