This Cottage Cheese Mug Cake is a quick, protein-packed dessert or snack made with simple ingredients like cottage cheese and oats. Perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth while getting a boost of protein, it’s ready in minutes! Top with berries, nuts, or chocolate for extra flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • 1/4 cup oats
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon honey or pure maple syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • A pinch of salt
  • Optional toppings: berries, nuts, or a touch of chocolate

Instructions

  • Blend the oats in a blender until they reach a fine flour-like consistency.
  • In a bowl, combine the cottage cheese, oat flour, egg, honey or maple syrup, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Mix until all ingredients are well combined and form a smooth batter.
  • Pour the batter into a microwave-safe mug, filling it no more than halfway to allow room for rising.
  • Microwave the mug for about 2-3 minutes, or until the cake has risen and set. Keep an eye on it to prevent overflow or overcooking.
  • Allow the mug cake to cool for a moment before adding your favorite toppings, such as fresh berries, nuts, or a drizzle of chocolate.
  • Enjoy your Cottage Cheese Mug Cake directly from the mug with a spoon!

Notes

  • Be careful not to overcook the mug cake as it can dry out. Microwave times may vary depending on the power of your microwave.
  • For a dairy-free version, you can try using a non-dairy yogurt instead of cottage cheese.
  • Feel free to customize this cake with your favorite flavorings, such as cinnamon or vanilla extract.
