Description

This flourless cottage cheese bread is a moist, high-protein, and low-carb alternative to traditional bread. With its light tang, fluffy texture, and endless flavor possibilities, it’s perfect for breakfast, snacks, or as a side dish. Easy to make and naturally gluten-free, this bread is a must-try for anyone looking for a guilt-free, nutritious loaf.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (full-fat recommended)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (like rosemary or chives) or 1 tablespoon honey for a sweet version

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a loaf pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. Blend the wet ingredients: In a blender or food processor, combine cottage cheese and eggs. Blend until completely smooth.
  3. Add dry ingredients: Add baking powder and salt to the mixture. Blend again or mix gently to combine evenly.
  4. Customize the flavor: Fold in herbs for a savory loaf or honey for a sweet twist, if desired.
  5. Prepare to bake: Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake: Bake for 35–40 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Cool and slice: Allow bread to cool completely in the pan before slicing to ensure the best texture.

Notes

For best results, use full-fat cottage cheese to achieve a richer texture. Always let the bread cool fully before slicing to prevent crumbling. Customize it with herbs, seeds, or even a swirl of nut butter for endless possibilities.
