Baked Cottage Cheese Eggs – A Cozy and Nutritious Breakfast

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven: to 375°F (190°C). Grease a small baking dish or ramekins.
  2. Prepare the mixture:
    • In a bowl, whisk together eggs, cottage cheese, milk, salt, pepper, and optional spices until smooth.
    • Stir in any optional add-ins like spinach, diced tomatoes, or bacon.
  3. Bake:
    • Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
    • Sprinkle the top with grated cheese.
    • Bake 20–25 minutes, until eggs are set and slightly golden on top.
  4. Serve:
    • Garnish with fresh herbs and enjoy warm with toast, avocado, or a side of fruit.

💡 Tips:

  • For fluffier eggs, separate yolks and whites, beat the whites until stiff peaks form, and fold them gently into the cottage cheese mixture.
  • You can make individual servings in ramekins for easy portion control and presentation.
  • Add a pinch of nutmeg to the cottage cheese mixture for a subtle, cozy flavor twist.
