Baked Blueberry Cottage Cheese Breakfast Bowls

Here’s a simple, reliable recipe you can riff on.

🫐 Baked Blueberry Cottage Cheese Breakfast Bowls

Ingredients (2 servings)

• 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat or low-fat both work)

• 2 large eggs

• ½ cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)

• ¼ cup rolled oats (optional, but adds great texture)

• 1–2 tbsp maple syrup or honey (to taste)

• ½ tsp vanilla extract

• ½ tsp cinnamon

• Pinch of salt

• Optional toppings: extra blueberries, sliced almonds, granola, nut butter

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease two small oven-safe bowls or ramekins.

2. Blend (optional but recommended):
   Blend cottage cheese, eggs, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
   If you like a more rustic texture, just whisk everything together instead.

3. Stir in oats (if using) and blueberries.

4. Divide mixture evenly between bowls.

5. Bake for 30–35 minutes, until centers are just set and tops are lightly golden.

6. Cool slightly, then add toppings and dig in.

Texture & Flavor Notes

• Texture = somewhere between cheesecake and baked oatmeal.

• Tangy from the cottage cheese, sweet from blueberries, cozy from cinnamon.

Easy Variations

• Lemon Blueberry: Add 1 tsp lemon zest.

• Protein Boost: Stir in 1 tbsp vanilla protein powder (you may need 1–2 tbsp milk).

• Chocolate Berry: Sprinkle dark chocolate chips on top before baking.

• Dairy-Free-ish: Use lactose-free cottage cheese (works great).
