Method

1. Freeze the banana in coins the night before. Frozen whole it will not blend, and unfrozen this is a milkshake.
2. Blend the frozen banana with the cottage cheese, yogurt, honey, vanilla and cinnamon, stopping to push it down rather than adding liquid.
3. Eat it straight away as soft-serve, or freeze it two hours for scoops. Scatter the walnuts over.
