2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat Oven

In a larger bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese, eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla until smooth.
Mix Everything Together
Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and stir gently until just combined.
Add Blueberries
Fold in the blueberries, being careful not to overmix.

Cool & Serve
Allow to cool for 10 minutes. Slice and enjoy warm, at room temperature, or chilled.

Notes

You can substitute the blueberries with raspberries, diced apples, or chopped peaches. Draining cottage cheese slightly helps avoid excess moisture. For a citrus twist, add lemon zest. This bake can be frozen for up to 2 months.
