Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup cottage cheese Use low-fat or regular cottage cheese.
  • 1 1/4 cups oats Use certified gluten-free oats for a gluten-free option.

Preparation and Baking
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cottage cheese, oats, peanut butter, and honey or maple syrup.
  3. Mix until well combined.
  4. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the edges are golden.

Notes

These cookies are best served fresh from the oven but can also be enjoyed at room temperature. You can pair them with milk or tea. For extra flavor, add chocolate chips or nuts on top before baking. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or freeze separated by parchment paper.
