Ingredients

For the Bake

  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons oat flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • Pinch of salt

For Topping

  • ½ cup fresh blueberries
  • Optional: drizzle of honey or sugar-free syrup

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease two oven-safe ramekins or a small baking dish.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, eggs, vanilla protein powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract, oat flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in one cup of fresh blueberries, being careful not to crush them.

Divide the mixture evenly between the prepared ramekins. Sprinkle the remaining blueberries over the tops for a beautiful finish.

Bake for 28–35 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and the centers are just set. Remove from the oven and let the bakes cool for about 5 minutes before serving.

Top with extra fresh blueberries and a light drizzle of honey or sugar-free syrup if desired. Enjoy warm with a spoon for a creamy, cheesecake-like breakfast that’s both satisfying and nutritious.


Tips

  • Use full-fat cottage cheese for an even creamier texture.
  • Frozen blueberries can be used; add them directly without thawing.
  • Blend the batter for an ultra-smooth cheesecake texture.
  • Prepare the batter the night before for an easy morning bake.

Storage

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave for 30–45 seconds before serving.
