This version is moist, lightly sweet, and packed with protein from cottage cheese and eggs. Similar recipes typically provide about 8 g of protein per slice, depending on ingredients and serving size. (Protein Prepper)
Ingredients
1 cup (240 g) cottage cheese
3 large eggs
2 cups (200 g) almond flour
1 cup (150 g) fresh or frozen blueberries
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
⅓ cup sweetener of choice (sugar, honey, maple syrup, or a low-calorie alternative)
Pinch of salt
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease or line a loaf pan with parchment paper.
Blend the cottage cheese, eggs, vanilla, and sweetener until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until combined.
Gently fold in the blueberries.
Pour the batter into the loaf pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. (Protein Prepper)
