Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup cottage cheese (creamy, full-fat or low-fat)
- 3 large eggs (separated)
- 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
- 1 tbsp cornstarch (or arrowroot powder, for structure)
- ½ tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
Fruits
- ½ cup fresh blueberries (plus extra for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Whip egg whites: In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until soft peaks form. Then add the baking powder and continue whipping until stiff peaks form for a fluffy texture.
- Blend wet ingredients: In a blender or food processor, combine the cottage cheese, egg yolks, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cornstarch. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- Fold mixtures: Gently fold the stiff egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture to retain airiness, being careful not to deflate the batter.
- Add blueberries: Fold in the fresh blueberries carefully to evenly distribute them without breaking them.
- Form rounds and top: Scoop the batter onto the prepared baking sheet into thick, round shapes about 1 inch thick. Top each round with extra blueberries for added flavor and visual appeal.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes until the tops turn golden brown and the bread is set in the center.
- Cool and serve: Let the bread cool slightly on the baking sheet before gently removing from the parchment paper. Serve warm or chilled for a delightful, fluffy treat reminiscent of cheesecake.
Notes
- For best results, use fresh blueberries to prevent excess moisture.
- You can substitute honey with maple syrup or omit sweetener for a less sweet bread.
- This bread is delicate; handle gently when folding and removing from parchment.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator and consume within 2-3 days.
