Ingredients

3 large eggs, yolks and whites separated

3 tbsp (51 g) small curd cottage cheese, any fat content


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (149°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large bowl, combine the egg yolks and cottage cheese. Whisk until smooth.

  3. In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form. If desired, add 1/4 tsp cream of tartar to stabilize the meringue.

  4. Gently fold the egg whites into the cottage cheese mixture in three batches, keeping the batter light and airy.

  5. Scoop 1/4 cup of batter per bread round onto the prepared baking sheet. Spread each round to about 3–3 1/4 inches wide.

  6. Bake for 25–30 minutes until the tops are golden brown. Bake one sheet at a time for even cooking.

  7. Let breads cool completely before removing from the parchment. The breads will deflate slightly as they cool but remain soft and airy.

Notes

  • Cream of Tartar: Optional but helpful if you’re new to meringue.
  • Work Quickly: Fold the meringue immediately to prevent it from deflating.
  • Cottage Cheese: Small curds work best; large curds may affect the texture.
  • Baking Tips: Bake one sheet at a time to ensure even cooking.
