🍌 High-Protein Banana Soufflé
💪 Why It’s High Protein

Egg whites for volume and protein
-
Greek yogurt and/or cottage cheese for creaminess + protein
-
Optional protein powder for an extra boost
🛒 Ingredients (Serves 2–3)
-
2 ripe bananas, mashed
-
3 large egg whites
-
1 whole egg
-
¼ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
-
1 scoop (25–30g) vanilla or banana protein powder
-
1–2 tsp sweetener (optional, to taste)
-
½ tsp vanilla extract
-
Pinch salt
-
Optional: ½ tsp cinnamon or nutmeg
👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease 2–3 small ramekins.
2️⃣ Mash Bananas
In a bowl, mash bananas until smooth. Stir in Greek yogurt, whole egg, vanilla, protein powder, and sweetener.
3️⃣ Whip Egg Whites
In a separate bowl, beat egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.
4️⃣ Fold Gently
Fold whipped egg whites into banana mixture carefully, keeping as much air as possible.
5️⃣ Bake
Spoon mixture into ramekins. Bake 15–18 minutes until soufflé rises and is lightly golden on top.
6️⃣ Serve Immediately
Soufflés deflate quickly — best served right from the oven. Optionally sprinkle with cinnamon or a few slices of banana.
