Ingredients

  • 2 cups self -rising flour
  • 2 cups plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 60 g vanilla whey protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup granulated erythritol or zero-calorie brown sugar substitute

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly coat a standard 9x5 inch loaf pan with non-stick spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the self-rising flour, 40g of the vanilla protein powder, and the Greek yogurt using a spatula until a cohesive dough forms.
  • Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll it out into an approximately 12x8 inch rectangle.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the cinnamon, sweetener, and the remaining 20g of protein powder to create the filling mixture.
  • Sprinkle the filling mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a 1/2-inch border at the edges.
  • Roll the dough tightly starting from the shorter side and place it seam-side down into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Bake for 25 to 28 minutes until the loaf is golden brown and firm to the touch.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing into 8 equal portions.
