Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cottage cheese
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 large apple, peeled and finely diced
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats or almond flour
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  3. Add Dry Ingredients: Stir in the rolled oats (or almond flour), ground cinnamon, and baking powder to the wet mixture to form a thick batter.
  4. Fold in Apples: Gently fold the finely diced peeled apples into the batter, distributing them evenly throughout.
  5. Transfer to Dish: Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
  6. Bake: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool & Serve: Allow the bake to cool slightly before slicing into portions and serving warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • You can substitute rolled oats with almond flour for a gluten-free option.
  • Use maple syrup or honey depending on your preference for sweetness.
  • For extra texture, add chopped nuts or raisins into the batter before baking.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently in the microwave or oven before serving.
