Banana walnut bruschetta with cottage cheese and honey is a delightful and nutritious recipe that combines the crunch of multi-grain bread with the creamy texture of cottage cheese, the natural sweetness of banana and honey, and the nutty flavor of walnuts. It's a perfect breakfast or snack that is both healthy and satisfying.

Ingredients:

2 slices multi-grain bread
50g
2 oz lowfat cottage cheese
60g
2/3 banana
100g
1/3 tsp cinnamon
0.86g
1.50 tsp honey
11g
1/4 oz walnuts
7g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Bread:
- Start by toasting the multi-grain bread slices. You can do this using a toaster or by placing them on a baking sheet and toasting in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, until they are golden brown and crispy.
2. Prepare the Toppings:
- While the bread is toasting, slice the banana into thin rounds.
- Roughly chop the walnuts into smaller pieces, if they are not already chopped.
3. Assemble the Bruschetta:
- Spread an even layer of low-fat cottage cheese on each slice of toasted bread.
- Arrange the banana slices on top of the cottage cheese, spreading them out evenly across each slice.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon evenly over the banana slices.
- Drizzle the honey over the top of the banana and cinnamon.
4. Finish with Walnuts:
- Sprinkle the chopped walnuts on top of the honey-drizzled banana slices.
5. Serving:
- Serve immediately while the bread is still warm for the best taste and texture.

Tips:

- For extra crunch, lightly toast the multi-grain bread slices before adding the toppings.

- Use ripe bananas for a sweeter taste and smoother texture.

- Sprinkle some extra cinnamon on top if you enjoy a stronger spice flavor.

- Consider adding a dash of vanilla extract to the cottage cheese for an added layer of flavor.

- For a dairy-free option, swap the cottage cheese with almond or cashew-based cheese.

This banana walnut bruschetta with cottage cheese and honey is a simple yet delicious dish that's perfect for any time of the day. With its combination of textures and flavors, it's sure to become a favorite. Enjoy it as a nutritious breakfast, a quick snack, or even a light dessert!
