Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
  • 2 tablespoons psyllium husk
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a small loaf pan.
  • Blend cottage cheese and eggs until smooth.
  • Stir in almond flour, flaxseed, psyllium husk, baking powder, and salt.
  • Mix until just combined, then let rest 5–10 minutes to allow psyllium husk to absorb moisture.
  • Transfer mixture to prepared loaf pan and bake 40–45 minutes until firm and golden.
  • Cool before slicing to set the texture.

Notes

  • Letting the batter rest before baking is key to avoiding gumminess, as psyllium husk needs time to absorb liquid.
  • Sprinkle sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, or pumpkin seeds on top before baking for extra flavor and crunch.
