Instructions

Heat oven to 350°F (180°C) and fold a 20 cm (7.9 inches) loaf pan with parchment paper or grease with oil.
In a large bowl, mash the bananas then combine with cottage cheese, egg, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Stir well until you get a smooth mixture.
Add into the wet mixture oat flour, almond flour (or more oat flour) and baking powder. Stir the ingredients together.
You may need to adjust with little flour more if the batter is too liquid, or with a splash of milk if it is too dry. This depends on the size of the bananas used.
Transfer your cottage cheese banana bread batter to the prepared pan, then bake in hot oven for about 30 minutes. The banana bread is ready when a toothpick inserted into its center comes out clean.
