Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a small baking dish or two ramekins for individual servings.
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together cottage cheese, eggs, mashed banana, and vanilla extract until smooth. The banana will add natural sweetness and a soft texture to the base.
Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the almond flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Mix until fully combined and smooth. The almond flour helps keep the bowls low-carb while providing a nice structure.
Fold in Nuts: Gently fold the chopped walnuts or pecans into the mixture. These will give the bowls a delightful crunch and nutty flavor.
Pour & Bake: Pour the mixture into your prepared baking dish or ramekins. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set. A toothpick should come out clean when inserted into the center.
Cool & Serve: Allow the baked bowls to cool slightly before eating. They are delicious warm or cold, making them perfect for meal prep or a quick breakfast!
