Description
A crisp and lightly sweet bowl of cottage cheese and chopped apples, perfect for breakfast, snacks, or as a side for brunch.
Ingredients
- 2 medium crisp apples (Honeycrisp, Fuji, or Gala), cored and chopped
- 1 to 1 1/2 cups cottage cheese
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, to taste
- 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts or pecans, toasted if desired
Instructions
- Wash and dry the apples thoroughly. Core and chop them into bite-sized pieces.
- Spoon the cottage cheese into a bowl. Let it sit in a sieve to drain off excess whey if very loose.
- Add the chopped apples on top and sprinkle the cinnamon evenly across the mixture.
- Drizzle honey or maple syrup over the apples and cottage cheese. Gently fold to combine.
- Fold in the chopped nuts last and serve immediately.
Notes
For a dairy-free option, use firm silken tofu blended until slightly chunky. Store cottage cheese and apples separately for best texture.
