Equipment

Ingredients 

  • 1 1/4 cups full fat cottage cheese (300g)
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil (or avocado oil)
  • 2 cups rolled oats (200g)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 2 teaspoons chia seeds
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease or line a 8x4 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
  • In a food processor, blend cottage cheese, eggs, and olive oil until smooth.
  • Add oats, baking powder, salt, walnuts, raisins, and chia seeds. Pulse just until combined—don’t overmix!
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. The texture will be thick but don't worry!
  • Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let cool before slicing. Enjoy warm

Notes

  • Don’t overmix – Just a few pulses after adding oats and mix-ins to avoid a dense texture.
  • Cool before slicing – Let rest 10–15 minutes for clean cuts.
  • Customize – Try cinnamon, nut butter, carrots, or spinach for different flavors.
  • Check doneness – Top should be golden; toothpick mostly clean.
  • Use parchment – For easy removal and clean edges.
