Description
A light and tangy baked dish combining cottage cheese and blueberries, perfect for brunch or as a healthy snack.
Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (plus extra for drizzling)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup rolled oats or ½ cup oat flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- ½ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- Optional: zest of ½ lemon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a small baking dish (about 8×8-inch).
- In a blender, combine cottage cheese, eggs, honey or maple syrup, vanilla, oats (or oat flour), baking powder, and salt. Blend until very smooth and creamy, about 30–45 seconds.
- Transfer the batter to a bowl and gently fold in the blueberries and lemon zest, if using.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set.
- Let rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature with an extra drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
Notes
For a smoother batter, pulse rolled oats to a fine powder before blending. Use frozen blueberries directly to prevent excess bleeding.
