  • Total Time: 55 minutes
  • Yield: 16 slices

Ingredients

For the breakfast bake

  • 2 cups (450g) cottage cheese, full-fat
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tsp vanilla bean paste or extract
  • 1 ½ cups (150g) rolled oats
  • 4 tbsp Sukrin Gold sweetener or Demerara sugar
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 4 tbsp milk, any kind (use as needed)

To top

  • 1 cup (150g) blueberries, halved if large
  • 2 tbsp flaked almonds or mixed seeds
  • 1 tbsp sugar or sweetener

Instructions

  1. Blend wet ingredients: Place the cottage cheese, eggs, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla bean paste or extract in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth, or leave some cottage cheese chunks if you prefer added texture.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, Sukrin Gold sweetener (or Demerara sugar), and baking powder. Stir well to evenly distribute.
  3. Combine and loosen batter: Pour the blended cottage cheese mixture into the bowl with dry ingredients. Stir the mixture to combine, then add milk gradually to loosen the batter until it reaches a spreadable oatmeal-like consistency.
  4. Prepare pan and add batter: Line a quarter sheet baking pan with baking spray or cake release to prevent sticking. Spread the batter evenly across the pan.
  5. Add toppings: Scatter the blueberries evenly over the batter and sprinkle with flaked almonds or mixed seeds. Finish by sprinkling with a little extra sugar or sweetener for added sweetness and texture.
  6. Bake: Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (180°C) for approximately 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean with a few crumbs.
  7. Cool and serve: Allow the bake to cool before slicing into 16 pieces. Serve as is or with a light drizzle of honey, agave, or maple syrup as desired.

Notes

  • This bake remains slightly creamy even after baking and stores well. Keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days or freeze slices for up to three months.
  • To reheat frozen slices, thaw overnight in the fridge and warm in the microwave, oven, or air fryer for best texture and taste.
  • Frozen blueberries can be used but may cause the batter to turn an unappealing color, so avoid folding them into the batter before baking.
