Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups Full-Fat Cottage Cheese
  • 3 large Eggs
  • ½ cup Almond Flour
  • ¼ cup Honey or Maple Syrup (or sugar-free alternative)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon Zest
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 2 cups Mixed Berries (fresh or frozen)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8 or 9×9-inch baking dish to ensure the bake does not stick and cooks evenly.
  2. Blend cottage cheese and eggs: In a blender or food processor, blend the cottage cheese and eggs until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. This step helps create a light, fluffy texture for the bake.
  3. Mix dry and wet ingredients: Transfer the creamy mixture to a large bowl. Add in almond flour, your choice of sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or a sugar-free option), vanilla extract, lemon zest, and baking powder. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
  4. Fold in the berries: Gently fold the mixed berries into the batter with a spatula, being careful not to overmix to avoid breaking the berries and discoloring the batter.
  5. Prepare to bake: Pour the batter into the greased baking dish and spread it evenly to ensure consistent cooking across the dish.
  6. Bake the mixture: Place the dish in your preheated oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is fully set (a toothpick inserted should come out mostly clean).
  7. Cool before serving: Allow the bake to cool in the dish for 20 to 30 minutes to let it set further and make slicing easier. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • You can substitute almond flour with coconut flour, but reduce the quantity as coconut flour is more absorbent.
  • Use fresh or frozen berries; if using frozen, there’s no need to thaw them first.
  • Adjust the sweetness to your preference by choosing honey, maple syrup, or a sugar-free sweetener.
  • Ensure the cottage cheese is blended thoroughly for a smooth texture.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute cottage cheese with a plant-based high-protein alternative.
