Individual Baked Blueberry Custard or Cottage Cheese/Ricotta Bowls.

Description

These individual baked treats feature a creamy, custard-like texture packed with juicy, sweet blueberries that burst during baking. Baked until golden brown on top with rich, gooey fruit layers, they make a comforting, protein-friendly breakfast or a decadent dessert.

• Main Ingredients:

  • 1.5 cups fresh blueberries (divided)

  • 1 cup cottage cheese or ricotta cheese (blended smooth)

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (or almond flour)

• Topping:

  • A light dusting of sugar or cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease small individual oven-safe ramekins or glass baking dishes.

2. Blend the Base: In a blender or food processor, combine the smooth cottage cheese (or ricotta), eggs, honey, vanilla extract, and flour until completely smooth and creamy.

3. Layer the Blueberries: Place a handful of fresh blueberries at the bottom of each prepared ramekin.

4. Pour the Batter: Pour the creamy custard mixture over the blueberries until the ramekins are mostly full. Top with a few extra fresh blueberries.

5. Bake: Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set with a slight jiggle.

6. Serve: Let them cool slightly before digging in. They can be enjoyed warm or chilled!
