Plant-Based Protein Powder

Vanilla

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 375 F and prepare frosting: place 2 cans of coconut milk upside down in the fridge until pretty chilly. Open cans and scrape off the thick coconut cream into a bowl. Add maple syrup and vanilla, and whip with a hand or standing mixer. While mixer is on low, slowly add in ALOHA Vanilla Protein Powder.Stick in fridge and save for later.

In a big ol' mixing bowl, whisk all gingerbread ingredients together until batter is smooth. Lightly oil a loaf pan (I used 9" x 5") and pour in batter. Bake for about 45 minutes, until toothpick comes clean when poked in center! Let cool, top with vanilla frosting and dive in face-first.
