For 1 baking dish (12 slices) you need:

  • 750 g low fat cottage cheese
  • 6 eggs
  • 2 bananas
  • 2 tablespoons of coconut sugar
  • 1-2 tablespoons of flour
  • baking powder
  • 1 pomegranate

Procedure:

Separate the egg-whites from the yolks and beat the egg-whites. Place the egg yolks, cottage cheese, bananas, coconut sugar, flour and baking powder into a mixer and mix until smooth. Gently stir in the beaten egg-whites.

Place baking paper in the baking dish and place the mix on it. Bake for 40-45 minutes at 170°C (gas marks 3-4).

Once it cools down, place it into a fridge - best to leave it overnight. :)

Before serving, sprinkle pomegranate arils over it. Yum! 

How to clean a pomegranate?

Cut the fruit in half but only cut through the peel, without damaging the arils inside. Use your fingers to separate both halves. Take a deep bowl and a big spoon. Turn the fruit upside down and hold the opened up part above the bowl. Hit the top fruit with a spoon, vigorously, so the arils fall out. While doing so, you can use your fingers to get even the most stubborn ones out.  

Enjoy!
