Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 6 medium Eggs (separated)
  • 2½ cup Flour
  • 2 teaspoons Baking powder (follow instruction on packaging)
  • 3 tablespoons Honey or sweetener of choice to taste
  • 8 oz Cottage cheese
  • 4 oz Season fruit or sugar free jam of your preference
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract (optional)

Instruction

  • Measure flour into a bowl. Mix baking powder with it.
  • Separate eggs. Put egg whites into a mixing bowl and the yolk into a cup ready for using them.
  • Beat egg whites in high speed until hard peaks form.
  • Pour yolk into the egg whites one by one, keep beating until they incorporate well. Mix honey with it as well.
  • Turn the mixer into low speed and start adding flour in. Get a bigger bowl if necessary.
  • Start adding the cottage cheese too by alternating between the flour and the cottage cheese. Add the optional vanilla extract too.
  • Keep mixing until getting an even mixture but be quick about it as the acid in the cottage cheese can diminish the baking powders raising power. Pour batter into a parchment paper lined baking tray.
  • Add lumps of jam on top.
  • Place tray into the middle rack of a 350°F / 180°C preheated oven until the inner temperature of the cake reaches 210°F / 99°C, which should happen when golden brown spots start to appear on top of the cake in about 30 - 40 minutes. Let it cool down and cut it into squares to serve it.
