This golden cottage cheese and apple bake is the coziest healthy dessert — tender apple cubes folded into a creamy cottage cheese batter with oats and a drizzle of honey. Like our Sugar-Free Cottage Cheese Casserole with Dates, it tastes like a treat but works just as well for breakfast.
Ingredients
- 200 g (7 oz) cottage cheese
- 1 apple
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp oat flakes
- 1 tsp honey or syrup to taste
Instructions
- Dice the apple into small cubes.
- Mix the egg, cottage cheese, oat flakes and honey in a deep bowl.
- Fold in the apple pieces.
- Spread into a greased or parchment-lined baking dish.
- Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 25-30 minutes until golden on top.
Tips
- Use dry, well-drained cottage cheese so the bake sets firmly and turns golden on top.
- Serve warm with a drizzle of honey; for another light treat try our Carrot Cake Bites with Cottage Cheese Frosting.
