Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 3 ripe Bananas
  • 1 cup Plant-Based Cottage Cheese
  • 1/4 cup Maple Syrup (natural)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons Plant-Based Butter, melted

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon Natural Gelling Agent

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bananas and Wet Ingredients: Mash the ripe bananas in a large bowl until mostly smooth with some texture remaining. Add the plant-based cottage cheese, maple syrup (natural), vanilla extract (natural), apple cider vinegar, and melted plant-based butter. Gently mix until all wet ingredients are combined.
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and natural gelling agent to ensure an even distribution and to help the bake rise with a tender crumb.
  3. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually fold the dry ingredient mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring just until blended. Avoid overmixing to keep the bake light and fluffy.
  4. Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into a greased baking dish and spread evenly. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 35 to 40 minutes until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

  • Choose ripe bananas for sweeter, moister results.
  • Use room temperature ingredients for smooth blending and even baking.
  • Do not overmix the batter to maintain a light, fluffy texture.
  • Check doneness starting 5 minutes before the indicated baking time.
  • Allow the bake to cool before slicing to ensure it sets properly.
