Description
A soft, slightly tangy cottage cheese bread that is high in protein and low in carbs, perfect as a savory snack or for breakfast.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Optional: herbs or spices (fresh rosemary, chives, garlic powder, or dried oregano)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a small loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix cottage cheese and eggs until well blended. Stir in almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Add olive oil and any desired herbs or spices, mixing until smooth.
- Pour the mixture into the greased loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
Notes
Use full-fat cottage cheese for the best texture. If the top browns too quickly, tent with foil for the last 10 minutes of baking. Allow to cool slightly before slicing.
