These Mixed Berry Cottage Cheese Oat Squares are a perfect breakfast solution for busy mornings. Packed with protein and the natural sweetness of mixed berries, they are wholesome and delicious.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 9 squares 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (blended smooth)
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup honey or maple syrup
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen unthawed), tossed in 1 tbsp flour

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, blended cottage cheese, milk, honey, and vanilla until smooth.
  2. Stir in the rolled oats and baking powder until well combined. Let the batter rest for 5 minutes.
  3. Gently fold in the flour-coated mixed berries, taking care not to mash them.
  4. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Pour the batter into a greased 8×8 baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  5. Bake for 35 minutes, or until the top is golden and set.
  6. Allow the oat squares to cool completely in the dish before slicing to ensure they hold their shape perfectly.

Notes

  • Use frozen berries without thawing to prevent excess moisture.
  • Blend the cottage cheese for a smoother texture.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
