Blueberry Cottage Cheese Breakfast Bake
️ Servings: 6-8
⏱️ Prep Time: 10 mins | Cook Time: 40 mins | Total Time: 50 mins
Ingredients:
1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat)
1 cup plain Greek yogurt (optional for creaminess)
3 large eggs
2 tbsp maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup oat flour (or blended oats)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
Optional topping: sliced almonds or a sprinkle of oats
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or line with parchment paper.
Blend wet ingredients: In a blender or food processor, combine cottage cheese, eggs, Greek yogurt (if using), maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth.
Add dry ingredients: Add oat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Pulse until just combined.
Fold in blueberries: Stir the blueberries into the batter gently by hand to avoid crushing them.
Pour & bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with almonds or oats if using.
Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden. A toothpick should come out clean.
Cool & serve: Let cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or cold, with extra yogurt, nut butter, or fresh fruit.
Storage:
Store in the fridge for up to 5 days
Freeze slices individually for up to 2 months
Variations:
Add-ins: Chia seeds, flaxseed, lemon zest, or protein powder
Fruit swaps: Raspberries, chopped apples, or strawberries
Grain-free: Use almond flour instead of oat flour
