Ingredients
2 frozen bananas, cut into 1-inch pieces
¼ cup cottage cheese
1 scoop (about 30 grams) of chocolate protein powder (plant-based or preferred type)
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
Optional: ¼ cup almond or other nut butter
Optional: Pinch (about 1/8 teaspoon) of salt or instant coffee
Instructions
1. Blend the frozen bananas, cottage cheese, chocolate protein powder, cocoa powder, and optional ingredients in a high-powered blender or food processor until smooth.
2. If using an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a compatible container and freeze for 18 to 24 hours, then process on a light ice cream or soft-serve setting.
3. Use a re-spin function with 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk or dairy-free milk if the texture is too crumbly.
4. Alternatively, without an ice cream maker, spoon the mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover, and freeze for 1 to 3 hours until firm, or serve immediately as a soft-serve treat.
