Ingredients
 
 

  • 3 ripe bananas
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup cottage cheese, I used 2%
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 12×5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • Mash the bananas in a large mixing bowl using the back of a fork. Add the eggs, cottage cheese, maple syrup, and vanilla extract, whisk until combined.
  • In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chips. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Feel free to sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top of the batter and gently press them in with your fingers so they don’t fall off while baking.
  • Bake the banana bread for 50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean, in the preheated oven
  • Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and let it cool completely before slicing.

Notes

  • Store your banana bread in an airtight container or packed with aluminum foil/plastic wrap in the refrigerator for up to a week.
