Make this simple, high-protein cottage cheese bread using only two main ingredients. This quick bread substitute is perfect for low-carb eating and fits well into healthy meal prep plans.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese, full-fat or low-fat
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon everything bagel seasoning (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a small loaf pan or a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place the cottage cheese and eggs into a food processor or high-powered blender. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, with no visible curds remaining. This step is key for a smooth texture.
  3. If using, add Italian seasoning and garlic powder to the mixture and pulse briefly to combine.
  4. Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan or spread it onto the baking sheet if making a flatbread shape. Sprinkle the top evenly with everything bagel seasoning, if desired.
  5. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes, or until the bread is set and lightly golden brown on top. The time varies based on your pan size and desired thickness.
  6. Remove from the oven and let the cottage cheese bread cool completely in the pan before slicing. Cooling allows it to firm up for better slicing.
  7. Slice and serve as a low-carb bread substitute for sandwiches or toast.

Notes

  • For a flatter bread suitable for wraps, spread the batter thinly on a parchment-lined baking sheet instead of using a loaf pan.
  • If you do not have a food processor, press the cottage cheese through a fine-mesh sieve before blending with the eggs to remove lumps.
  • This bread freezes well. Slice it before freezing for easy grab-and-go portions.
