Ingredients
2 cups cottage cheese
1½ cups rolled oats
4 eggs
2 tbs olive oil
1 tbs baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350℉ Line a 9×5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
- Strain your cottage cheese of its liquid as best you can and discard the liquid.
- Add all the ingredients to your blender and pulse until mostly smooth.
- Pour the batter into your pan and bake for 35-40 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
- I loosely covered mine with foil for the last 15 minutes because it was getting too tan on top.
- Allow to set in the pan for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes prior to slicing.
Notes
- Store on your counter in an airtight container or in your fridge for up to 5 days.
- You can also just mix this in a bowl if you don’t have a blender.
- Almond flour or all purpose flour can be subbed for the oats but decrease the amount to 1 cup + 3 tablespoons of flour.
