My Storage Tips
If you are going to have it within 2 days, wrap the cake tightly or store it in an airtight container at room temperature.
For longer storage, place the leftovers in an airtight container and keep it in the fridge for up to 5 days. To have it warm and cozy, place it in the microwave for 10-15 minutes before eating it.
You can also keep this cake in the freezer. Wrap each slice individually in a plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe container. It will stay fresh for up to 2 months.

▢2 small ripe bananas mashed
▢4 eggs
▢1/2 cup cottage cheese
▢2 tbsp maple syrup optional
▢2 tsp vanilla extract
▢2 1/2 cups almond flour
▢1 tsp baking soda
▢2 tsp cinnamon
▢1 cup blueberries
Topping
▢2 tbsp chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350F, line a loaf pan with parchment paper and spray with oil.
In a large bowl, mash bananas, crack in the eggs, add in the cottage cheese, maple syrup (if using) and vanilla extract. Whisk all of the ingredients together.
Add in almond flour, baking soda, cinnamon and combine all of the ingredients well to form thick batter. Fold in the blueberries.
Pour the batter into the loaf pan, level it out, sprinkle with chocolate chips and press them in. Bake in the oven uncovered for 30 minutes. Then, cover with foil, bring back to the oven, and bake for another 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven and check with a toothpick that it’s cooked. Let it cool down before serving.
