High-Protein Breakfast Cake

Ingredients

• 200 g cottage cheese
• 250 g overripe banana (the riper the better)
• 50 g sugar substitute (sugar substitute)
• 2 eggs (size M)
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 50 g vanilla protein powder
• 140 g self-rising flour (self-rising flour)
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1.5 tbsp white chocolate chips

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F) and prepare a baking dish of approximately 22x15 cm.

2. 2

   Place the cottage cheese and the overripe banana in a food processor or chopper and blend until you have a smooth mass.

3. 3

   Pour the mixture into a mixing bowl and add the eggs, vanilla extract, and sugar substitute. Mix until a smooth batter forms.

4. 4

   Sift the self-rising flour and baking powder over the bowl. Add the vanilla protein powder as well.

5. 5

   Using a whisk, mix everything together thoroughly until there are no lumps left in the batter.

6. 6

   Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the white chocolate chips evenly over the top.

7. 7

   Bake the breakfast cake in the oven for 40-45 minutes until beautifully colored. If the top gets too dark, you can lower the temperature to 160°C after 30 minutes or cover it with aluminum foil.

8. 8

   Perform a 'skewer check' by inserting a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, the inside is fully cooked.

9. 9

   Let the cake cool slightly before slicing, though it is also delicious served warm.

Notes

Variations: Instead of white chocolate, you can use cookie crumbs on top or fold fresh fruit into the batter before pouring it into the dish. Storage: This is great for meal prep as it lasts for several days.
