Baked Blueberry Cottage Cheese Breakfast Bowl

Prep time: 5 mins | Bake time: 20-25 mins | Servings: 1 | Protein: 17g

Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 tbsp honey (or maple syrup)

  • ¼ tsp vanilla extract

  • ¼ cup fresh or frozen blueberries

  • 1 tbsp rolled oats (optional, for texture)

  • Pinch of cinnamon

  • Dusting of powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small, oven-safe ramekin or jar.

  2. Blend the Base: Add the cottage cheese, egg, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract to a blender. Process until completely smooth and creamy. (Note: You can also just whisk thoroughly in a bowl if you don’t mind the natural texture of cottage cheese curds).

  3. Mix in Extras: Stir in the optional rolled oats and a pinch of cinnamon. Fold in half of the blueberries.

  4. Assemble: Pour the mixture into your prepared ramekin. Top with the remaining blueberries.

  5. Bake: Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20 to 25 minutes, until the center is set and the edges are lightly puffed and golden brown.

  6. Serve: Allow to cool for 5 minutes. Dust with a tiny bit of powdered sugar if desired, and enjoy warm!
