Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Cottage cheese
- 4 large Eggs
- 1 cup Rolled old-fashioned oats
- 1 Banana
- 1/3 cup Maple syrup
- 1 tsp Baking soda
- 1 cup Blueberries
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Bowls: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly spray two 2-cup glass bowls with non-stick spray and place them on a large baking sheet for easy handling.
- Blend the Batter: Add the cottage cheese, eggs, oats, banana, maple syrup, and baking soda to a high-powered blender. Blend the mixture until smooth, which will take a few minutes. If the batter is too thick, add a small amount of milk to thin it out slightly for easier pouring.
- Fill Bowls and Add Blueberries: Pour the blended batter evenly into the prepared bowls, filling them more than halfway. Top each bowl generously with fresh blueberries.
- Bake: Bake the bowls in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, though baking time can extend up to 45 minutes depending on your oven. The bowls are done when the top is golden brown, the mixture has puffed up, and the surface feels firm to the touch.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the bowls from the oven and allow them to cool for at least 10 minutes before enjoying. For meal prep, cover the bowls with lids and refrigerate for up to one week.
Notes
- You can substitute rolled oats with quick oats if preferred, but texture may slightly vary.
- If you want a thinner batter for easier blending, add 1-2 tablespoons of milk at a time.
- To make this recipe dairy-free, substitute the cottage cheese with a plant-based alternative (though texture and flavor will change).
- These bowls can be reheated in the microwave for about 1-2 minutes before eating.
- Feel free to swap blueberries with other berries or fruit of your choice.
