Description
A nutritious and high-protein alternative to regular bread made with cottage cheese and whole wheat flour, perfect for sandwiches and snacks.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 large eggs
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Combine the cottage cheese and eggs in a large mixing bowl, stirring until well mixed.
- Gradually add the whole wheat flour to the mixture, stirring until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
- Shape the dough into a loaf and place it in a greased bread pan.
- Allow the dough to rest for 15 minutes.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For added flavor, consider mixing in herbs or seeds. Ensure cottage cheese is well-drained to avoid excess moisture. For a crunchier crust, bake a few minutes longer while monitoring closely.
