Servings & Timing
- Yields: 4 servings

- Cook Time: 40 minutes
- Total Time: 50 minutes
Ingredients
- 360 g cottage cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 90 g rolled old-fashioned oats
- 1 ripe banana
- 80 ml maple syrup
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 150 g blueberries
- Splash of milk (optional, for blending)
Instructions
Step 1 – Preheat & Prep Bowls:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly spray four 2-cup glass bowls with non-stick spray and place them on a large baking sheet.
Step 2 – Blend the Batter:
In a high-powered blender, combine cottage cheese, eggs, oats, banana, maple syrup, and baking soda. Blend until smooth. Add a splash of milk if the mixture is too thick.
Step 3 – Fill & Top Bowls:
Pour the batter evenly into each prepared bowl, filling each more than halfway. Top with blueberries.
Step 4 – Bake:
Bake for 35–40 minutes. Check at 35 minutes — they’re done when the tops are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Step 5 – Cool & Serve:
Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or store for later.

- Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg on top before baking for extra flavor.
