Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (240g) cottage cheese
- 1 cup (150g) fresh or frozen blueberries
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup (60ml) honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup (50g) rolled oats
- 1/4 cup (30g) almond flour
- Pinch of cinnamon (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together cottage cheese, eggs, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- In another bowl, mix rolled oats, almond flour, and cinnamon (if using).
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Avoid overmixing.
- Gently fold in the blueberries, reserving a few for sprinkling on top.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking dish and top with the reserved blueberries.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let the bake cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
Notes
For best results, use room temperature ingredients and grease the baking dish well. If using frozen blueberries, toss them in a little flour before adding to the batter to prevent sinking.
