Ingredients:
- 600 grams cottage cheese
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla sugar
- 130 grams sugar
- 250 grams sour cream (or natural yogurt)
- 30 grams corn starch
- A pinch of salt
- 50 grams coconut flakes
- Almond flakes (optional, for topping)
Instructions:
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal later.
- Mix the Base: In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, vanilla sugar, and regular sugar. Use a hand mixer or a blender to blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. Make sure there are no lumps in the mixture.
- Add the Creaminess: Stir in the sour cream (or natural yogurt) and mix until fully incorporated. The mixture should be smooth and well combined.
- Incorporate the Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the corn starch and a pinch of salt to the mixture. Stir gently until everything is well combined. Fold in the coconut flakes to add a subtle coconut flavor and a bit of texture to the dessert.
- Prepare to Bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. If desired, sprinkle almond flakes on top for an added crunch and nutty flavor.
- Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-40 minutes, or until the dessert is set and the top is lightly golden. You can check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, the dessert is ready.
- Cool and Serve: Let the dessert cool slightly before cutting it into portions. Serve warm or at room temperature, and enjoy it as a light, fluffy breakfast treat or a healthy snack.
