Description
A delicious and nutritious cottage cheese bowl topped with banana and peanut butter.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup small curd cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
- 1 ripe banana (sliced)
- 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon black chia seeds
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup
Instructions
- Scoop the cold cottage cheese into a wide, shallow bowl. Using a wider bowl provides more surface area for toppings, ensuring a balanced flavor in every spoonful.
- Peel the ripe banana and cut it into uniform rounds about a quarter-inch thick. Arrange the slices in a neat row or circular pattern on one side of the cheese.
- Drizzle the creamy peanut butter over the center of the bowl in a zig-zag or circular motion. If the peanut butter is too stiff, warm it for ten seconds in the microwave to make it pourable.
- Sprinkle the chia seeds evenly across the surface. The moisture from the cheese and the stickiness of the peanut butter will help the seeds stay in place.
- Hold the cinnamon jar a few inches above the bowl and tap it gently for a light, even dust. Add a drizzle of honey if you prefer extra sweetness and serve immediately while the cheese is cold.
Notes
- This recipe can be customized with different fruits or nut butters based on your preference.
- Serve chilled for the best flavor.
