Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

2 cups low-fat cottage cheese

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

1/3 cup honey or maple syrup

1/4 cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Cooking spray or butter for greasing

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.

    Prepare the Blueberries: If using fresh blueberries, rinse them under cold water and set aside. If using frozen blueberries, allow them to thaw and drain excess moisture.

      Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, almond milk, honey (or maple syrup), eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and well combined.

        Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the rolled oats, coconut sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt together until evenly distributed.

          Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, folding gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

            Add Blueberries: Gently fold in the blueberries and chopped walnuts, if using. Ensure the fruits are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

              Pour into Baking Dish: Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

                Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

                  Cool and Serve: Allow the Blueberry Cottage Cheese Bake to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature, and consider drizzling with a bit of honey or maple syrup for added sweetness.

                    Enjoy: Enjoy your delightful and nutritious Blueberry Cottage Cheese Bake as a breakfast dish, a healthy snack, or even dessert!
