Description
A simple yet delicious breakfast combining the creaminess of cottage cheese with sweet blueberries.
Ingredients
- 2 cups full-fat cottage cheese
- 4 eggs
- 4 tbsp sweetener of choice
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1½ cups blueberries (divided)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8×8 dish well.
- Strain 2 cups cottage cheese for 2–3 minutes to remove excess liquid; set aside.
- Blend cottage cheese, eggs, sweetener, vanilla, and cornstarch until smooth, pausing once to scrape sides.
- Check texture—should be creamy like a smoothie. If grainy, blend 15 seconds more. Add 1 tsp milk if too thick.
- Fold in blueberries and lemon zest gently to avoid smashing berries.
- Pour into the greased dish and spread evenly. Tap gently on the counter to remove air bubbles.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, until edges are set and a toothpick comes out mostly clean.
- Cool for 10–15 minutes before slicing. Top with extra blueberries if desired.
Notes
