Step 1: Prep Bananas
Peel and slice the ripe bananas into chunks. Freeze for at least 2 hours or overnight until solid.
Step 2: Blend Mixture
In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine frozen banana chunks and cottage cheese. Blend until creamy and smooth, scraping down sides as needed.
Step 3: Freeze Ice Cream
Transfer the blended mixture to a loaf pan or airtight container. Freeze for 2-4 hours until firm but scoopable.
Step 4: Serve
Let soften for 5-10 minutes at room temperature before scooping. Enjoy as is or with toppings like nuts or chocolate chips.
Prep Time: 5 min | Freeze Time: 4+ hours | Total: ~4.5 hours
Tips for Success:
Use full-fat cottage cheese for creamier texture; blend thoroughly to eliminate lumps.
Store in the freezer for up to 1 week; stir halfway through freezing for softer consistency.
