Cottage Cheese Pie

I was a bit lazy this Sunday morning, because my little “Dragon” woke me up at 6 am. Well, at least he let me sleep continuously through the night. Anyway, I decided instead of standing and making my pancakes, I will try something new. I had the cottage cheese waiting for me in the fridge so I mixed almost the same ingredients and let the oven do the work for me. Surprisingly, I liked the pie taste better than the pancakes, since it is more tender.

The cinnamon in the recipe is to increase the insulin sensitivity.

Preparation time: ~10 minutes. Baking time: ~45 minutes.

INGREDIENTS: 

• Eggs – 3 large
• Pressed Cottage Cheese  – 500 grams
• Cinnamon (ground) – 1 tablespoon
• Oatmeal (quick oats) -3 tablespoon
• Havarti Cheese – 1.5 slices ~40 grams
• Coconut Oil – for  8″ round pan

INSTRUCTIONS:

Preheat oven to 360F. In a large bowl mix eggs, cheeses, cinnamon and oatmeal to a uniform paste. Transfer the content of the bowl on a baking paper (in the 8″ round pan) greased with coconut oil. Bake for ~40 minutes. Last 5 minutes I switch to broil to form a crust on top.

The whole recipe is ~1 serving of carbs (15 grams).

Bon Appetit!
