Method
Preheat the oven to 180 °C and grease a small baking dish with butter7.
Mash the cottage1 cheese with the egg, salt, and cinnamon until thick and smooth.
Coarsely grate the apple3, gently squeeze out the excess juice, and stir it into the cottage1 cheese.
Add the rolled4 oats, mix, and let stand for 5 minutes.
Transfer the mixture to the dish and smooth the top.
Bake for 25 minutes at 180 °C, until the top is set and lightly browned.
Let the bake stand for 5 minutes, then serve with Greek5 yogurt.
Tips
- Why it works
- Squeeze out the grated apple so the extra juice doesn't thin the cottage cheese. The top will set in 25 minutes and the middle won't stay wet.
- Substitutions
- Swap the Greek yogurt for regular thick yogurt, 50 g. Swap the oats for semolina, 20 g, and let the mixture sit for 10 minutes.
- Common mistakes
- A common mistake is cutting it straight out of the oven. The middle wobbles and crumbles on the spoon. Let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes.
- Storing and reheating
- Keep in a closed container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat for 30 to 60 seconds in the microwave or 8 minutes at 160 °C.
- Serve with
- Serve for breakfast with 50 g of yogurt and slices of fresh apple.
In short
- Marked healthy: the planner picks it more often for the goals “lose weight” and “eat well”.
