Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
Mash 2-3 ripe bananas in a bowl, then mix in 2 eggs, 1 cup cottage cheese, 1/3 cup maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together 2 cups almond flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
Combine the wet and dry mixtures gently until just combined; avoid overmixing.
Pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
