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 and prepare dish: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8 or 9×9-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Blend cottage cheese and eggs: Blend the cottage cheese and eggs together until the mixture is smooth and creamy, creating the base of the batter.
  3. Mix dry and wet ingredients: Transfer the blended mixture to a bowl and stir in almond flour, your choice of sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or sugar-free alternative), vanilla extract, lemon zest, and baking powder until fully combined.
  4. Fold in berries: Gently fold the mixed berries into the batter to evenly distribute them without breaking them down.
  5. Pour and spread batter: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth it out evenly to ensure a consistent bake.
  6. Bake the dish: Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set, indicating it’s fully cooked.
  7. Cool and slice: Allow the bake to cool for 20 to 30 minutes before slicing into servings for best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use fresh or frozen mixed berries according to availability.
  • For a sugar-free version, substitute honey or maple syrup with your preferred sugar-free sweetener.
  • Letting the bake cool fully helps it set and makes slicing easier.
  • Make sure not to overmix once the berries are added to avoid crushing them.
  • This bake can be served warm or chilled, depending on your preference.
