You can make this surprisingly simple, high-protein bread using just two ingredients. This recipe creates a soft, sliceable loaf perfect for sandwiches or toast, fitting well into low-carb or fitness-focused meal plans. We do the testing so you get a flawless result.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cottage cheese, full-fat or low-fat
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning (optional, for flavor)
  • 1/2 tsp Everything bagel seasoning (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small loaf pan (about 8×4 inches) or line it with parchment paper.
  2. Place the cottage cheese and eggs into a food processor or a high-powered blender. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. You should not see any curds remaining; this step is key for a smooth texture.
  3. If using, stir in the Italian seasoning now.
  4. Pour the smooth batter into your prepared loaf pan.
  5. If desired, sprinkle the top evenly with everything bagel seasoning.
  6. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the bread is set in the center and lightly golden brown on top.
  7. Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before carefully transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. Once fully cooled, slice the bread. This bread is best enjoyed fresh or stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Notes

  • Blending the cottage cheese until completely smooth prevents a grainy texture in your final bread.
  • This bread is naturally gluten-free because it uses no traditional flour.
  • For a savory loaf, add 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder along with the Italian seasoning.
  • Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing to prevent it from crumbling.
