I found this recipe somewhere, some time ago – and I’ve tweaked it ever so slightly to make the most delicious and ‘good for you’ bread! It’s just so fluffy and light and tasty … especially when slathered with butter! It also makes good use of one of my favorite products, ‘Whey Protein Concentrate’ by Bioflex Nutrition (available here).
And why do I love WPC so much? Aside from the facts that my mate from Hobart, Tasmania owns the company and I have been using the products since 2009, here are just a few reasons đŸ™‚
-
 Australian WPC sourced from grass-fed hormone free cows
-
Ultra-filtered for ultimate purity
-
100% GMO free
-
Natural flavours including vanillin and cocoa
-
Sweetened naturally with stevia
Whey Protein Concentrate is an ideal pure protein source, its high in naturally occurring BCAAs and EAAs which are essential for muscle growth and recovery.
It contains minimal carbohydrates making it an excellent choice not only for baking, but as a post-workout shake or in addition to smoothies.
