Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup (220 g) cottage cheese, full-fat recommended
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 egg whites or 1 whole egg more
  • 1 ½ cup (150 g) rolled oats or oat flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ⅓ tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Heat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 6-inch (15 cm) loaf pan with parchment paper or grease it with a light coating of oil to prevent sticking.
  2. Strain Cottage Cheese: Drain the cottage cheese by removing any excess liquid on top to ensure the batter has the right consistency.
  3. Blend Ingredients: Add the strained cottage cheese, egg, egg whites, rolled oats, baking powder, and salt into a blender or food processor. Blend everything until smooth, but be careful not to overmix to maintain a good texture.
  4. Fill Pan and Bake: Evenly spread the batter into your prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top if necessary. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes. Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the loaf; it should come out clean.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing. This makes it easier to cut and enhances the texture.

Notes

  • Using full-fat cottage cheese enhances flavor and texture.
  • You can substitute oat flour for rolled oats if you prefer a finer crumb.
  • Ensure you strain the cottage cheese well to prevent a soggy loaf.
  • Adjust egg quantity if you want a richer bread or a slightly different texture.
  • This bread stores well in the refrigerator and can be toasted for breakfast or sandwiches.
