1 cup of cottage cheese made with live bacteria
1 cup of dried egg whites
1 cup of water
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare a loaf pan by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it.
Whip the Egg Whites:
In a big bowl, mix the dried egg whites with 1 cup of water until they form soft peaks. This will give your bread the perfect texture.
Combine Ingredients:
Mix the cottage cheese with the egg whites until smooth to add moisture, a tangy flavor, and extra protein.
Transfer to Pan:
Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan, and use a spatula to smooth the top.
Bake:
Bake the bread for 40-45 minutes until it is firm and has a golden brown crust on top. Adjust the baking time according to your oven and the size of the loaf pan.
Cool:
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serving Suggestions:
Enjoy this bread as is, or enhance it with your favorite spreads and toppings. It’s a great option for a high-protein breakfast or a nutritious and fulfilling snack.
