  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional: mini chocolate chips or blueberries

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a mini muffin tin or use silicone liners.

Blend Ingredients:

  • Add oats, cottage cheese, bananas, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt to a blender. Blend until smooth.

Fill Muffin Tin:

  • Pour the batter into the mini muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Add chocolate chips or blueberries if using.

Serve or Store:

  • Enjoy warm or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Great for meal prep!

Notes

  • Texture Tip: Blending the oats makes the texture more pancake-like.
  • Sweetness: For extra sweetness, add 1 tablespoon of maple syrup or honey.
  • Make It Dairy-Free: Use plant-based cottage cheese or Greek-style yogurt alternatives.
  • Freezer-Friendly: Freeze cooled bites in a zip bag for up to 2 months. Reheat in microwave.
