Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 medium apple, diced
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Optional Toppings

  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tbsp chopped nuts

Instructions

  1. Dice the Apple: Wash and core the apple, then dice it into small, bite-sized pieces for easy mixing and eating.
  2. Mix with Cinnamon: In a small bowl, toss the diced apple pieces with the cinnamon until they are evenly coated to infuse the fruit with warm spice flavor.
  3. Prepare Cottage Cheese: Scoop 1 cup of cottage cheese into a serving bowl as a creamy base for the dish.
  4. Assemble the Bowl: Top the cottage cheese with the cinnamon-coated apple pieces, spreading them evenly.
  5. Add Optional Toppings: Drizzle honey over the top for natural sweetness and sprinkle with chopped nuts for added crunch and texture, if desired.

Notes

  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar for a vegan version.
  • Choose tart apples like Granny Smith for more tanginess, or sweeter varieties like Fuji for natural sweetness.
  • For extra protein, add a sprinkle of chia seeds or flaxseeds.
  • Use low-fat or full-fat cottage cheese depending on your dietary preferences.
