Baked Blueberry Cottage Cheese Bowls
High-protein breakfast or dessert with creamy,
cheesecake-like texture. Simple ingredients, 30g protein per serving, ready in
35 minutes.- Prep
Time: 5 minutes Cook
Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 ½
cups low-fat cottage cheese
- 2 large
eggs
- ¼
cup maple syrup or honey (adjust to sweetness preference)
- 1
teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½
cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- Optional:
a squeeze of lemon juice, cinnamon, or a pinch of salt
Instructions- Preheat
your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease two 10-ounce ramekins or a
small baking dish.
- In a
blender or food
processor, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla
extract. Blend for 45-60 seconds until completely smooth and creamy with
no visible curds.
- Pour
the mixture evenly into the prepared ramekins or baking dish.
- Sprinkle
the blueberries evenly over the top of the cottage cheese mixture.
- Bake
for 25-30 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly
golden. The bowls will puff up while baking.
- Remove
from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. The bowls will
deflate slightly as they cool.
Notes- Blending
the cottage cheese mixture until completely smooth is crucial for avoiding
a grainy texture. Blend for at least 45-60 seconds.
- If
using frozen blueberries, add them directly from the freezer. You may need
to add 2-3 extra minutes to the baking time. I used frozen strawberries.
- Do not
overbake, as the centers can become dry. The mixture should have a slight
jiggle in the center when done.
