π Ingredients:
- 1 cup fat-free cottage cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1 tbsp sugar-free maple syrup or 1β2 tsp sweetener (adjust to taste)
- Β½ tsp vanilla extract
- Β½ cup blueberries (fresh or frozen, do not thaw)

π₯£ Step 1: Prep
- Preheat oven to 180Β°C / 350Β°F
- Lightly spray 2 ramekins or a small baking dish with nonstick spray
π₯ Step 2: Mix the Base
- In a bowl, add cottage cheese
- If you want it smooth and creamy, blend it for 10β15 seconds (optional but recommended)
- Add egg, vanilla, sweetener, cinnamon, and salt
- Whisk until fully combined
π‘ Texture tip:
- Not blended = slightly lumpy, more βcheesecakeβ texture
- Blended = smooth, custard-like
π« Step 3: Add Blueberries
- Gently fold in blueberries
- If using frozen, add them straight in (this helps prevent bleeding color too much)
π₯ Step 4: Assemble
- Pour mixture evenly into ramekins
- Sprinkle oats on top or mix them in
- Add a few extra blueberries on top for a pretty finish
π₯ Step 5: Bake
- Bake for 25β30 minutes
- It should look:
- Set in the middle (slightly jiggly is okay)
- Lightly golden on top
π‘ Donβt overbake! It will continue to firm up as it cools
β² Step 6: Cool & Serve
- Let sit for 5β10 minutes
- This helps it set and improves texture
