Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (174°C) and line a standard loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. Mash 2-3 ripe bananas in a mixing bowl until smooth.
  3. Add 2 room temperature eggs and 1 cup of cottage cheese to the mashed bananas, stirring until well blended.
  4. Pour in 1/4 cup of maple syrup and sprinkle in 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, stirring gently.
  5. Gradually sift in 1 1/2 cups of gluten-free flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder into the wet mixture.
  6. Gently fold in 1/2 cup of chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  7. Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  8. Bake for approximately 50 minutes, checking for doneness after 30 minutes.
  9. Insert a toothpick into the center of the loaf after 50 minutes; it should come out clean.
  10. Allow the loaf to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
