Equipment Needed

Step-by-Step Instructions
First things first, gather your ingredients. I love using a ripe banana because it’s naturally sweet and easy to mash. Start by mashing the banana directly in your microwave-safe mug using a fork. Next, I add the cottage cheese, peanut butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract. This mixture creates a creamy base that’s both delicious and decadent. It should feel smooth and velvety.
