This Now, Make It Later!
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • ½ cup almond flour
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Optional: pinch of salt, herbs, or seeds for topping

Tools Needed:

  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk or hand mixer
  • 8×4-inch loaf pan
  • Oven

Substitutions and Additions:

  • Use Greek yogurt instead of cottage cheese for creamier texture
  • Add 1 tbsp flaxseed meal or chia seeds for extra fiber

How to Make Easy Keto Cottage Cheese Bread

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your loaf pan lightly with butter or coconut oil and line it with parchment paper.

Step 2: Mix Wet Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together cottage cheese and eggs until smooth and creamy. I love this part because the kitchen instantly smells cozy and inviting!

Step 3: Add Dry Ingredients

Gently fold in almond flour and baking powder. Mix until just combined—overmixing can make it dense. Optional: add salt, herbs, or seeds here.

Step 4: Bake

Pour the batter into your prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with a spatula and bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Step 5: Cool and Slice

Allow the bread to cool completely in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice and enjoy immediately or toast for breakfast.

What to Serve with Keto Cottage Cheese Bread

  • Avocado slices with a sprinkle of chili flakes
  • Smoked salmon and cream cheese
  • Nut butter and sugar-free jam
  • Fresh greens or a keto-friendly soup

Tips for Making It Perfect

  • Make sure your cottage cheese is well-drained for a fluffier texture
  • Don’t overmix the batter
  • Let the bread cool fully before slicing to avoid crumbling
  • For meal prep, slice and freeze, then toast slices as needed

Storage Instructions

  • Room temperature: Store in an airtight container for 2–3 days
  • Refrigerator: Up to 5 days
  • Freezer: Slice, wrap in parchment, and freeze up to 1 month
