Cottage Cheese Bread
120kcal
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 0.5 tsp baking soda
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 1 cup small-curd cottage cheese
- 1 large egg lightly beaten
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 1 tbsp honey
Method
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix cottage cheese, egg, melted butter, and honey until smooth.
- Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined—overmixing leads to a tough loaf!
- Pour batter into the prepared pan, smooth the top, and bake for 40–45 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Notes
For a savory version, add a teaspoon of dried herbs or garlic powder. For a lighter option, use low-fat cottage cheese and reduce honey by half. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze slices for longer storage.
