Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish with a light coat of cooking spray or a small amount of butter.

Step 2: Mix the Wet Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, eggs, vanilla extract, and honey until smooth and well combined.

Step 3: Add the Dry Ingredients

Stir in the rolled oats, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until fully incorporated.

Step 4: Fold in the Blueberries

Gently fold in the blueberries, reserving a few for topping if desired.

Step 5: Bake

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle any reserved blueberries on top.
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.

Step 6: Cool and Serve

Allow the bake to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature with your favorite toppings.

Notes

Use Fresh or Frozen Blueberries: Both work well, but if using frozen, do not thaw them to prevent excess moisture.
Oats Substitution: Swap rolled oats for quick oats for a slightly different texture.
Extra Flavor: Add a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of lemon zest for an aromatic twist.
