Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cottage cheese
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup almond flour
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8-inch round baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, chopped strawberries, eggs, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Mix until well blended.
- Gently fold in the almond flour until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
- Let it cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm or chilled.
Notes
- Use full-fat cottage cheese for a creamier texture.
- You can swap fresh strawberries for frozen ones, but thaw and drain them first to avoid excess moisture.
- Maple syrup gives a slightly deeper flavor compared to honey.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- This bake can be served as a dessert, breakfast, or post-workout snack.
