Mini Blueberry Protein Loaves (Healthy Recipe – Makes 8 Servings)

Instructions

1. Preparation: Preheat your oven to 180°C 350°F. Lightly spray the 8 cavities of your mini loaf pan with a low-calorie cooking spray.

2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, protein powder, baking powder, and salt.

3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the yogurt/Quark, eggs, milk, sweetener, vanilla extract, and optional lemon zest until the mixture is smooth.

4. Mixing: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Gently mix with a spatula or whisk until the ingredients are just combined. Do not overmix; some small lumps are acceptable.

5. Add Fruit: Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.

6. Baking: Distribute the batter evenly into the eight prepared mini loaf cavities, filling each about two-thirds to three-quarters full.

7. Cooking: Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a skewer inserted into the center of a loaf comes out clean.

8. Cooling: Allow the loaves to cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before carefully removing them to a wire rack to cool completely.
