Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (225g) small-curd cottage cheese
- 1 large ripe banana
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
- A pinch of cinnamon (optional)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Scoop 1 cup (225g) of small-curd cottage cheese into a mixing bowl. If using, stir in ½ teaspoon vanilla extract and a pinch of cinnamon gently to combine.
- Peel one large ripe banana and slice into thin rounds about ¼ inch thick.
- Spoon the cottage cheese mixture into a serving bowl and arrange the banana slices evenly on top.
- Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of chia seeds over the banana slices if using.
- Drizzle 2 tablespoons of honey generously over the banana and chia seeds. Warm honey slightly if thick for easier drizzling.
- Optionally, taste and adjust sweetness or spice by adding more honey or cinnamon. Serve immediately.
Notes
Use small-curd cottage cheese for creamier texture. Warm honey slightly if thick for easier drizzling. Prepare cottage cheese mix and banana slices the night before and add honey just before serving to avoid sogginess. Optional chia seeds add crunch and fiber. Substitute Greek yogurt for tangier flavor or use agave syrup/maple syrup for vegan version.
