This is the last recipe I made before leaving for my races in Canada. I guess I figured the best thing to have before leaving for a race was some Peanut Butter Chocolate Banana protein cake. It’s a mouthful of a name, but also a very delicious mouthful when you eat it.
I had to have 2 slices right before I left, and I can always count on my brother to eat a bunch, so it is probably all gone. One day last week he ate 4 of my oreo protein cupcakes. At least someone helps me eat them and they don’t go to waste.
For the cake, I made it a banana bread flavor with vanilla protein powder and mashed ripe bananas. It really reminded me how much I love the taste of banana bread.
This cake would have been great even if it didn’t the frosting. Of course I always like to add a little extra flavor so I added the frosting. It is a creamy dark chocolate frosting drizzled with peanut butter.
This recipe is actually inspired by a delicious cake on Amy’s Healthy Baking website. She has some really great healthy desserts!
