Mini Cottage Cheese Banana Loaves

Written By Nikki Burman

These mini cottage cheese banana loaves are a simple breakfast or snack to make ahead. Almond flour, ripe bananas, and chocolate chips make each little loaf soft and satisfying.

A QUICK NOTE

Use very ripe bananas for the sweetest flavor and best texture. Silicone mini loaf pans release easily, but you can also use a greased metal pan and begin checking a few minutes early.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed

  • 3 large eggs

  • ½ cup fat-free cottage cheese

  • 3 tablespoons sugar-free syrup

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  • 2½ cups almond flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

  • ⅓–½ cup Lily’s chocolate chips

  • Optional: chopped walnuts, in place of or in addition to the chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a mini loaf pan if needed.

2. In a large bowl, stir together all ingredients until well combined.

3. Divide the batter evenly among the mini loaf cavities.

4. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the tops are lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

5. Let the loaves cool slightly before removing them from the pan.
