Print Recipe

A quick and satisfying high-protein breakfast bowl featuring creamy cottage cheese, fresh fruit, crunchy granola, and seeds. Ready in just 10 minutes, this customizable bowl is perfect for busy mornings and packed with protein to keep you full until lunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (225g) full-fat or low-fat cottage cheese
  • 1/2 cup (75g) fresh or frozen berries (blueberries, raspberries, or sliced strawberries)
  • 1/2 medium ripe banana, sliced
  • 1/4 cup (30g) crunchy granola (low-sugar recommended)
  • 2 tablespoons mixed seeds (chia seeds, hemp seeds, pumpkin seeds)
  • 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup
  • Optional: sprinkle of cinnamon, shaved almonds, dollop of Greek yogurt, pinch of flaky sea salt

Instructions

  1. Spoon cottage cheese into a bowl and spread into an even layer.
  2. Scatter berries and sliced banana over the cottage cheese, distributing evenly.
  3. Sprinkle seeds first, then granola on top for a texture gradient.
  4. Drizzle honey or maple syrup lightly over everything. Add a tiny pinch of flaky sea salt if desired.
  5. Optional: add a sprinkle of cinnamon or shaved almonds.
  6. Eat immediately for best texture and flavor contrast.

Notes

For best texture, let cottage cheese sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before assembling. If using frozen berries, thaw on a paper towel for 5-10 minutes to prevent a watery bowl. Add granola right before eating to avoid sogginess. A pinch of flaky sea salt enhances sweetness. Prep fruit the night before for faster assembly.
