Strawberries & Cream Protein Loaf Cake with White Chocolate Chunks & Sultanas

INGREDIENTS

2 mugs self raising flour

1 tsp baking powder (optional, I find it helps)

1 egg, beaten

1 mug of strawberries & cream protein shake made up with water

white chocolate chunks (you choose the amount)

handful of sultanas (optional)

YOU MUST USE THE SAME MUG FOR ALL MEASUREMENTS REQUIRED, BIGGER THE MUG, BIGGER THE LOAF

METHOD

1. Preheat your oven to 200c electric / 180c fan / gas 6

2. Line your loaf tin with grease proof paper

3. Sieve your flour and baking powder into a large mixing bowl, add your chocolate and sultanas if using and mix well

4. Add your protein shake, the egg and mix all the ingredients together until everything is evenly combined

5. Pour the mixture into your prepared tin, place in the oven on the middle shelf and bake for approx 30/40 minutes, to check if your loaf is baked insert a cocktail stick/skewer, if it comes out clean, your loaf is ready. (if you find the top of your cake is browning but isn't baked cover loosely with some silver foil)

6. Place your loaf on a cooling rack to cool completely, then slice and enjoy

This loaf cake tastes delicious toasted, it also freezes well, but before freezing I would recommend slicing and inserting some grease proof paper between slices, so you can take out a slice as and when you fancy it
