Equipment

  • 1 8x4 loaf pan

Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup small curd cottage cheese - Any fat percentage works.
  • ¾ cup mashed spotty-brown bananas - Use spotty-brown bananas as opposed to yellow or green. The darker in color they are, the sweeter they will be.
  • ¼ cup avocado oil
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 1 ½ teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • cup dark chocolate chips - I use no added sugar chocolate chips.

Instructions
 

  • First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and line an 8x4 loaf pan with parchment paper. Set it aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the blended cottage cheese, mashed banana, avocado oil, maple syrup, milk, vanilla extract and eggs.
  • Next, add in the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Use a rubber spatula to combine the ingredients. Fold in the chocolate chips when the flour is almost all mixed in.
  • Spoon the batter into the loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Let the bread cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then, gently remove it from the pan and place it on a wire cooling rack.
  • Allow the banana bread to cool for at least 1 hour before slicing. Do not cut it while it’s still warm. It will fall apart.
