INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese (113g)
1 large Egg (50g)
1 medium Banana (100g)
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour (60g)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (60g)
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (4.2g)
1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda (2.5g)
1/4 teaspoon Salt (1.5g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a small loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, mash the banana until smooth. Add the cottage cheese, egg, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing to keep the bread tender.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy a slice as a protein-rich treat for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
