Blueberry Cottage Cheese Breakfast Bake

A delightful breakfast bake combining creamy cottage cheese and sweet blueberries, perfect for busy mornings or lazy weekends.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups low-fat cottage cheese (room temperature)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional – almonds or walnuts)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
  • Cooking spray or butter (for greasing)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease a 9×9-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the room-temperature cottage cheese, eggs, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until fully smooth.
  3. Stir in the rolled oats and your choice of almond milk. Mix well, then let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes to allow the oats to soak up some moisture.
  4. Gently fold in the blueberries along with any optional chopped nuts or chia seeds, being careful not to burst the berries.
  5. Pour the batter into your prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
  6. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving warm!

Notes

Pairs beautifully with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a sprinkle of cinnamon on top. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
