Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup cottage cheese Base ingredient that brings moisture and a mild tang.
  • 4 large eggs Helps bind the ingredients and set the bread.
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil Adds silkiness and helps the crust brown.
Dry Ingredients
  • 1 cup almond flour Provides nutty richness and tender crumb.
  • 1/2 cup oat flour Adds graininess and familiar bready texture.
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast Brings a savory, cheesy flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder Leavens the bread for a light texture.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt Balances and highlights flavors.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese and eggs until uniform.
  3. Add almond flour, oat flour, nutritional yeast, baking powder, and salt; mix until well combined.
  4. Stir in olive oil until well incorporated.
  5. Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Let cool before slicing.

Notes

Grease the pan to keep slices intact and monitor baking time closely to avoid overbaking. Letting the loaf cool helps it finish setting.
