Made with wholesome ingredients like cottage cheese, eggs, and a hint of coconut, this treat is not only delicious but packed with protein to keep you energized. Whether served warm or chilled, this dish will quickly become a favorite on your breakfast table.


Ingredients

  • 600 grams cottage cheese (creamy and rich base)
  • 4 eggs (for structure and fluffiness)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla sugar (adds a warm, sweet aroma)
  • 130 grams sugar (for sweetness)
  • 250 grams sour cream or natural yogurt (for extra creaminess)
  • 30 grams corn starch (to thicken the mixture)
  • A pinch of salt (to enhance the flavors)
  • 50 grams coconut flakes (for texture and a subtle tropical flavor)
  • Almond flakes (optional, for topping)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven:

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
  • Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup later.

2. Mix the Base:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, eggs, vanilla sugar, and regular sugar.
  • Use a hand mixer or blender to mix until the texture is smooth and lump-free.

3. Add Sour Cream:

  • Stir in the sour cream or natural yogurt. Mix well to create a rich and creamy batter.

4. Incorporate Dry Ingredients:

  • Gradually add the corn starch and a pinch of salt, stirring gently until fully combined.
  • Fold in the coconut flakes to add a subtle crunch and hint of coconut flavor.

5. Prepare for Baking:

  • Pour the mixture into your prepared baking dish.
  • Sprinkle almond flakes on top if you’d like a nutty, crunchy topping.

6. Bake:

  • Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the top turns a light golden color and the dessert is set.
  • To test doneness, insert a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, your treat is ready.

7. Cool and Serve:

  • Let the dish cool slightly before cutting it into portions.
  • Serve warm for a comforting breakfast or chilled as a refreshing snack.

Notes

  • Smooth Cottage Cheese: If your cottage cheese has larger curds, blend it first for a smoother texture.
  • Make It Gluten-Free: Corn starch is naturally gluten-free, but ensure the brand you use is certified if needed.
  • Add Some Zing: A squeeze of lemon juice can add a citrusy brightness to this dish.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
