3-Ingredient Cottage Cheese Blueberry Oat Cake
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a small baking dish or loaf pan with parchment paper, or grease it lightly with a touch of coconut oil spray.
- Blend the Base: Add your 1 cup of cottage cheese and 1 cup of rolled oats directly into a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture turns into a completely smooth, thick, creamy batter. Note: Blending ensures you won’t feel any of the curds from the cottage cheese, leaving you with a smooth, cake-like texture!
- Fold in the Berries: Pour the thick batter into a mixing bowl. Gently fold in ¾ cup of your fresh or frozen blueberries using a spatula, saving the remaining berries to decorate the top.
- Assemble the Cake: Transfer the batter into your prepared baking dish and smooth out the top with your spatula. Replicating the gorgeous, berry-loaded presentation in , scatter the remaining blueberries generously across the surface, pressing them in slightly.
- Bake to a Golden Finish: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes. You will know it’s ready when the top turns an alluring golden-brown color, and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Slice: Let the cake cool completely in the pan for 10-15 minutes before lifting it out. This allows the cottage cheese base to set firmly. Slice into thick wedges and marvel at the stunning, jammy layers just like the slice highlighted in !
