Ingredients
2 servings
Instructions
- Place the banana, cottage cheese, protein powder, cocoa powder (if using), maple syrup (if using), and vanilla in a high powered blender or a food processor. Add any additional flavors (except chocolate chips).
- Blend until smooth and creamy—it will be very thick and at the beginning, you will need to stop and move everything around a few times. If using chocolate chips, sprinkle them in, then pulse a few times to combine.
- Pour into a loaf pan, then freeze until hard, about 4 hours. Let stand at room temperature to soften for 5 to 10 minutes before scooping.
