I am so grateful to have my own home office thanks to an amazing man who so generously gave it to me. One problem I seem to face often is a lack of space on my desk. School books, materials for my students and recipe development notebooks have completely taken up all the space on my desk. Finding an empty space to jot down a note has become next to impossible. So as I promised to myself in my previous post, I plan to make organization a priority and have a life with less clutter, which includes my desk! All I really needed was a few pretty inexpensive baskets or crates to store the bulky items. A basket with a cover is a great idea if you have a few eyesores that you rather keep hidden. What’s best is that because the baskets look beautiful, you can still keep them next to your desk so you have easy access at any time.
Ps. For free samples of Truvia Calorie-Free Sweetener head to Truvia.com/Canada/products/free_sample
• 1 ripe banana
• 1/3 cup almond milk (or your favorite non-dairy beverage)
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
• 1/3 cup chocolate protein powder (I use garden of life raw protein powder)
• 1 cup gluten free oats
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 4 packets Truvia Calorie-Free Sweetener
• 1 tsp gluten free baking powder
• 1 tsp baking soda
• ¼ tsp salt
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans (for sprinkling)
• 1/4 cup 70% chocolate chips (for sprinkling)
1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease 6 mini loaf pans and place on a baking tray. (If you don’t have mini loaf pans, you can do this in muffin tins as well)
2. In a high-speed blender add the banana, almond milk, eggs, coconut oil, protein powder, oats, vanilla, Truvia Calorie-Free Sweetener, baking powder, and baking soda. Blend until thoroughly combined. Make sure to scrape the sides of the blender.
3. Pour batter evenly amongst the loaf pans (about 1/3 of the way up) and bake for 15-17 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
4. Store in an airtight container for up to 10 days.

Jen,
You are awesome! I love your blog and think you are fabulous. Keep it up.
I'm a fan :-)

Thanks Janie!
These look yummy. Do you know the calories approximately if I make them in muffin form? Also would I count it as a carb? So best to eat this at breakfast?? Thank you!! I love your blog!
Ps I made your detox green soup! Loved it!!
So glad you loved the soup! I don't count calories but you can enter the information on a calorie calculating website and just enter the number of servings by how many muffins you make! Because there are oats and bananas these definitely have energy boosting carbs! A perfect breakfast or post workout snack.
Your room looks awesome, love it ! I have tried your recipe but using aspatame sugar instead and after put it in the oven the sweet is goes away. The next time I will try the truvia sugar which you suggested. Thank you for your awesome recipe!
Hope it works out better with the Truvia!
Hi Jen!
I don’t have small loaf pans, can I dump into one regular loaf pan? Should I modify bake time? Also, is oat flour or quick oats? Or it had to be rolled oats? Just checking what I currently have in my pantry :0) !!
Love all of your recipes - always simple and super delicious!
You can totally put it into one loaf pan, you will just have to bake it for longer. Its just oats, the blender helps turn it to flour. Rolled oats, or quick oats both work fine.
