Creamy Baked Blueberry Cottage Cheese Bowls are a wholesome, protein-packed breakfast or snack featuring a soft, custard-like texture and bursts of juicy blueberries. Lightly sweet and comforting, this easy baked dish feels nourishing while still tasting like a treat.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cottage cheese
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • Pinch of salt
  • Optional toppings: extra blueberries, yogurt, nut butter, granola

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease 4 small baking dishes or ramekins.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together cottage cheese, eggs, maple syrup (or honey), vanilla extract, cinnamon, cornstarch, and salt until well combined. For a smoother texture, blend the mixture until creamy.
  3. Gently fold in most of the blueberries, reserving a few for topping.
  4. Divide the mixture evenly between prepared baking dishes and sprinkle remaining blueberries on top.
  5. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until centers are set and tops are lightly golden.
  6. Allow to cool slightly before serving, as the texture firms up while resting.
  7. Add desired toppings just before serving.

Notes

  • Full-fat cottage cheese yields a creamier texture, but low-fat works well too.
  • Blend the mixture for a smooth, cheesecake-like consistency or leave unblended for a rustic texture.
  • Swap blueberries with raspberries or chopped strawberries for variation.
  • Add chia seeds, sliced almonds, or dark chocolate chips for extra texture and flavor.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Reheat in the microwave for 30–45 seconds or enjoy cold.
  • Freeze for up to 2 months and thaw overnight before reheating.
