Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon or nutmeg (optional)
  • 1/2 cup milk or almond milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line your baking dish to prevent sticking and ensure easy serving later.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, milk, honey or preferred sweetener, and vanilla extract. Whisk until well blended and smooth.
  3. Combine the Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, stir together the rolled oats, baking powder, and optional spices like cinnamon or nutmeg.
  4. Blend Wet and Dry: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until fully incorporated but not overmixed.
  5. Fold in Blueberries: Carefully fold fresh blueberries into the batter, distributing them evenly without crushing.
  6. Bake to Perfection: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for approximately 35–40 minutes or until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes

  • Use fresh ingredients for best flavor and texture, especially fresh blueberries and quality cottage cheese.
  • Don’t overmix the batter to keep the bake light and airy.
  • Allow the bake to cool slightly before slicing to maintain its structure.
  • Adjust sweetness gradually by tasting the batter before baking.
  • Grease the pan well to prevent sticking and make serving easier.
