High-Protein Flourless Apple & Walnut Yogurt Loaf – A Healthy Treat

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
2. 2

   In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, Greek yogurt, applesauce, 1/4 cup maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. 3

   In a separate medium bowl, combine the almond flour, protein powder, baking powder, baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk well to combine.
4. 4

   Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing with a spatula until just combined. Fold in the finely diced apple.
5. 5

   In a small bowl, toss the chopped walnuts with the remaining 1 tablespoon maple syrup and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.
6. 6

   Pour the cake batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly. Sprinkle the coated walnuts over the top.
7. 7

   Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. 8

   Let the loaf cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15-20 minutes, then use the parchment sling to remove it and transfer to the rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
