Chef tips
For an even silkier texture, freeze the banana in slices beforehand. If using frozen blueberries, you may not need all the ice.
Substitutions
You can substitute the cottage cheese with thick Greek yogurt, though the flavor will be tangier. Honey can be replaced with maple syrup for a different profile. Whole or reduced-fat milk works best for a creamy texture.
