Recipe:
Ingredients:
3 large ripe Bananas (about 375g peeled)
2 large Eggs
1 cup (225g) Cottage cheese
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
1/3 cup (80ml) Maple syrup or honey (optional – see notes)
1¾ cups (220g) All-purpose flour *see notes
1 teaspoon Baking powder
1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/2 cup Walnuts, roughly chopped
Instructions:
1. Prepare the pan: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan and line it with parchment paper.
2. Mix the dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
3. Mix the wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, mash the bananas with a fork until mostly smooth. Add the eggs and whisk until combined. Stir in the cottage cheese, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
4. Combine the batter: Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir just until combined. Do not overmix. Fold in the chopped walnuts.
5. Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 35–45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
6. Cool: Let the banana bread cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
