Equipment

Ingredients

  • 500 grams full fat cottage cheese (do not use low-fat) one medium tub
  • fruits of choice I used 7 strawberries + 1/4 banana
  • drizzle sweetener of choice, to taste I used maple syrup

Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients in a food processor, blender, or bowl using a stick blender.
  • Make sure to measure with your heart and add as much or as little sweetener as your heart desires. I used 2 tablespoons of maple syrup but I am leaving that up to you.
  • Pour the mixture back into the cottage cheese container or a freezer-safe container with a lid. I prefer to stir it every hour until it is frozen or to your liking.
  • If the ice cream becomes too icy, you can re-blend it after it's frozen for the perfect texture if you wish. You can also enjoy it as soft-serve.
  • Enjoy as is for the perfect protein packed treat!
