Ingredients

  • 2 ripe bananas, mashed (about 1 cup)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup full-fat cottage cheese
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1/4 cup almond flour or oat flour (optional)
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas until mostly smooth.
  3. Add eggs, cottage cheese, vanilla, and cinnamon. Stir until fully combined or blend for a smoother texture.
  4. Stir in almond or oat flour, sweetener (if using), and salt. Mix just until incorporated.
  5. Divide batter evenly into muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
  6. Bake for 18–22 minutes, until set and lightly golden. A toothpick should come out mostly clean.
  7. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use very ripe bananas for maximum sweetness and moisture.
  • Blending the batter creates a smoother, more uniform muffin texture.
  • Add-ins like chocolate chips, nuts, or fruit can customize flavor and texture.
  • Allow to cool completely before storing or freezing to prevent excess moisture buildup.
