This Easy Blueberry Cottage Cheese Breakfast Bake tastes like dessert but fuels your body like a champion. It's a quick, protein-packed morning meal with creamy cheesecake flavor, juicy blueberries, and wholesome oats.

Ingredients

  • Cottage Cheese: 2 cups, full-fat or low-fat for a creamier, richer texture
  • Eggs: 3 large, to bind everything together
  • Rolled Oats: 1 cup, for a hearty, gluten-free base
  • Maple Syrup or Honey: 1/4 cup, for natural sweetness
  • Fresh Blueberries: 1 cup, plus a handful more for scattering on top
  • Vanilla Extract: 1 teaspoon, for warm, aromatic flavor
  • Baking Powder: 1 teaspoon, to help the bake rise
  • Pinch of Salt: To balance sweetness and enhance flavors
  • Lemon Zest: Optional, to brighten the dish

Instructions

  1. Combine the Wet Ingredients: In a large blender or food processor, combine cottage cheese, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Blend until completely smooth.
  2. Mix in the Dry Ingredients: Pour the smooth cottage cheese mixture into a large mixing bowl. Add rolled oats, baking powder, and salt. Stir until just combined. Gently fold in one cup of blueberries.
  3. Bake to Perfection: Pour batter into a greased 8x8 inch baking dish. Scatter remaining blueberries on top. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 40-45 minutes until golden brown and set.
  4. Let it Rest and Serve: Cool for 10-15 minutes before slicing to allow it to set fully.
